First and foremost I want to remind everyone to keep Haiti, its victims, survivors and their families alike, in your prayers. There is so much that can be said what is going on there but real aid/assistance is motivated from the heart, not just by sending money and saying/posting words. Therefore I limit my comments to that.
So I guess the aforementioned topic somewhat provides a segway into what I am feeling tonight. What gets under my skin are people who are the complete and utter opposite of everything they profess to be.
Those people who claim they are so giving and and doing good will but are really self-serving. SELFISH!
"I'm going to donate $5 to Haiti", really just to say they did but wont even call their own family/friend in the hospital here in the U.S.
The people who are always posting/updating their status/changing their text signature implying they are so wise yet don't seem to have common sense (which by the way isn't common anymore). Always asking God and everyone who will listen why they have the problems they have. Let me see, try actually reading and COMPREHENDING some of those quotes you get off the internet and books and movies.
And let me not forget those fair-weather friends. The ones who call you their "best friend" but can never quite be a friend when you need one the most, but always call you to hear the latest gossip, or go to a party or when THEY need a favor.
I'm just saying it would be nice if people actually tried to be the people they proclaim to be. Let's do better!
Anywho I think I've vented enough about this......
Peace!
I totally agree with you girlie. Especially in regards to those fair-weathered friends that call you they best friend...but only contact you when they want something. Everyone has their reasons for being the way they are, but I can only agree to the fact that people should put their words into actions, be who they say they are..and if they aren't there, work towards getting to that point.
