Why Is This So Difficult

 When I made this blog I made a pact with myself to not be a complainer. I hate those blogs where some emo girl writes about how much her life sucks and just whines about everything. But let me tell you something I am sick and tired of the meaness I see all around me everyday. It's not complicated, just think about how your own actions affect others. All you really need to know we learned in kindergarten. Where it was simple. Share. Think about others. Do your best. Eat fruits and veggies. Pay attention. Be on time. No put-downs. It's okay to color outside the lines, sometimes. I know that I can't ask for things to be simple again. If I did ask that, it would be asking to stunt the progression of the human race. I know, life has to be difficult and we must deal with people we don't want to at some times. That which doesn't kill us, makes us stronger. (I'm pretty sure I use that in every post.) So here is the goal: Don't find fault, find remedy. --Henry Ford. Sometimes the remedy for a situation where one is being treated poorly is just leaving. Other times the problem stems from them, but it's up to you to fix the problem. Most often, I have found, it stems from within. You must be the change you wish to see in the world. --Ghandi. When people with power make a change, it seems to rub off onto others. People always say you become like your friends, which I believe after so many times thinking "Oh my gosh I sound like ____(insert friend's name here)." With all the actions I see people with power make, I can't help but wish they made better choices. There are some people that have so much influence on a school, town, church group, or other social organisation who make bad desions, which then rationalises said decsion. If only the leaders out there set good examples, every one would benefit. I truly believe some people just do not realize their influence on others. Perhaps we should look back to kindergarten, not to refuse to grow, but to look at the example children set.
