dear mr president

I did this a few weeks ago - just because...it's not perfect, but I think it gets the point across. I love the song Dear Mr. President form P!nk and although I don't think I did it justice, I think I made my point. Click on the title of this post and it will bring up a powerpoint presentation the plays along with the song. (hopefully)

A special Thank You to P!nk for her fabulous song, to all the sites which made the photos available and to my inspirations at aidpage. - this is for you....

No one is entitled...

I read a lot of posts about people pissed off because they don't get what they want. Hey, I bitch too, but let's face it - NO ONE IS ENTITLED TO ANYTHING.

Let's face it, our country is screwed up, but we have phenomenal resources available to everyone.

free health insurance
free grants for down payments for a house
free education
rental assistance
dental assistance
computers
clothing

The list goes on and on and on... all of it free and yet people still bitch. WTF is wrong? When did we get the idea that we deserve anything? Because we were born here? Our ancestors came over and learned to speak English. They learned to get along with one another. They learned to survive. They helped one another. No it wasn't perfect, but they sure as hell were not killing each other in drive-bys over name brand clothing.

What has anyone (other than our military personnel on the front lines) done to deserve anything? You were born here? SO? Nothing is a human right. You have to earn it and I think that is what people are pissed off about - they actually have to earn something - to work for something. We have become lazy and inept.

Yes, our government is corrupt. Our citizens are greedy. But we have everything we need and more. Stop pissing and moaning about what you don't have, and do something about it.

There is a TON of information available on the internet for FREE which can help you improve your life. Stop waiting for a hand out, get off your ass and do something about it. The only ones who can't help themselves are children, the elderly, and the mentally retarded. They actually need someone to do it for them.

Stop making bullshit excuses for your life and your mistakes. Stop making stupid fucking mistakes. A 12 year old giving birth is not a gift from God. It is called a lack of parental supervision. A crack head or a meth addict overdosing is not sad - its inevitable.

You know what's sad? A 4 year old used as a punching bag by some guy because mom did not want to be alone. I feel sad for the child but the mom is a freaking idiot and the guy should be on the receiving end of a baseball bat. How about kids who go without their dinner because mom and/or dad are too busy partying? What about families that are homeless due to the floods in the Midwest? Sad is a teenager kicked out of their home because mom doesn't want them around because mom has a new boyfriend. Sad is an abused mom and child going to their church for help and being told to go home to her husband. Sad is the ignorance and stupidity of our society thinking it is cute for girls to behave like stupid sluts and have no morals or values. Sad is thinking women should be subservient to any man. Sad is thinking one man can change the world. Sad is thinking you can change anyone other than yourself. Sad is thinking a label defines you.

Take responsibility. Keep learning. Make changes. Stop relying on anyone for your happiness- it has to come from within. You can make the world a better place, one person at a time - start with yourself.

dreams

Everyone has dreams। But how many people actually realize their dreams? How many people get to see their dreams come true? I have a lot of dreams - well, used to anyway I don't anymore All that's gone now. Its been replaced by a no nonsense reality that has stripped me of my pride and hope. I suppose its for the better. I mean who needs dreams anyway? All they do is build you up so someone can tear you down. You hope for a better tomorrow to get through today only to find out tomorrow is even worse. Our air is polluted, water is polluted, eco system is failing, food is poisoned and prices are rising but our pay remains the same. So you hold on tight to the little dreams that someday will make all worthwhile. Then you get so close, the brass ring is in your reach, then it is snatched away, because for some reason, in someone's eyes, you are somehow unworthy.

I never wanted much out of life. A nice family, good husband, decent pay, health care benefits, enough food to feed my family, enough money to pay my bills, and a little house, of our own, for us to live in. Believe me that is scaled down quite a bit from what I used to want. But it seems even this it out of my reach, and not meant to be. I was this close. And it has been taken from me.

Friends and family tell me don’t worry it'll happen. No it won't. I'm done. I can't do anymore. I have fought too long and too hard to get what I want only to have it taken from me. I can’t do it anymore. I just don’t have it in me anymore. I'm too old and too tired. I've had enough -they've won. I'll just be another nameless, faceless drone in society - eeking out a living from the scraps that are tossed my way.

I used to fight for what I wanted, until I continually lost, time and again. You have to pick and choose your battles. Apparently, I chose poorly. There will be no legacy to pass on. No greatness, nothing. Just more of the same. It's sad realizing that you are nothing to anyone. Sure I am a parent, child, friend, co-worker, but what am I really? Have I made a difference? I have continually failed at everything I set out to do - so what difference have I made in this world? It is no better than when I began. In fact, it is much worse, and I have done nothing to change it. I'm not giving up, just giving in. I've had enough - you win.

5/28/08 - lying

Bitch, complain, rant, vent, get it out - whatever you want to call it, everyone has something to bitch about. The problem is, most times they have no one to bitch too.
So, that is why I made this blog - for my own personal forum of complaints. Add yours if you like.
I only have a few rules:

• SPELLING COUNTS!!! Please, for the love of God, type your complaint in WORD, then spellcheck the damn thing! If you want to sound like an idiot, I will treat you like one.
  
• No fighting - take it elsewhere. Threats, harassment, etc. will be treated like a criminal act.
  
• I reserve the right to make up new rules as I go along.... so :p
• You can complain about anything you want - except me!
  

That being said, I want to complain about my favorite subject - MEN.

While they do have a lot of endearing qualities ( I can't think of any right now) - WTF is the problem with them and the phone? How difficult is it for them to pick up a phone and say, "Sorry, but I can't make it." or some other lame excuse? Would they do that to their mother? NO!!! But they will do it to a girlfriend or wife - no problem.

Now I understand women are just as guilty, however one of my pet peeves is lying. If you are going to do something - do it. Don't screw around and SAY you are going to do something, DO IT! And don't bullshit us either. OH please, like we don't know when you are lying! WE KNOW! We always know.

It's the same thing as being pregnant. EVERY WOMAN KNOWS WHEN SHE IS PREGNANT. This crap from women who claim they didn't know - are liars! You would have to be in a coma to NOT know you were pregnant.

What it comes down to is this: Men, I know it is hard - sorry, difficult - We all know it is hard, all the time! Anyway, we know it is difficult to be honest, but TRY! OK? That is all we ask. Yeah, we might get mad, initially, but hey, isn't that what making up is for?

Women - just because we hate it when men lie, doesn't mean it is any better coming from us. So stop the lying, the half truths, and the bullshit. A lie is a lie is a lie. All it does is screw up your relationship.
