Do you know what’s actually pretty difficult to do?
Be nice.
Well, more specifically, not being a jerk when faced with stupid situations.
I’m working on being an overall better person. I’ve come to realize that I’m wasting far too much time with lame things and there really isn’t that much time to be remembered as someone with a lot of good qualities. So I’m on it now, before time runs out and people only remember me for kicking my dog and rolling my eyes at my husband.
Today at church (and for anyone that doesn’t know, I’ve taken back to the faith of my roots, and I happily and willingly go to church every Sunday, it makes me very happy). So anyways, today at church, I had to practice being a better person when a group of girls made me want to punch them. Well the past me wanted to punch them. Well I still wanted to punch them, but I kept that in my head (because like I said, I’m working on it).
People can just be so lame and petty and create unnecessary drama. And at church of all places? But oh well, I can’t do anything about how other people act, so the best I can do is control how I act.
So today, instead of saying “didn’t you see the sign ya moron…no seat saving!!!!” Or “maybe if you would have got here on time, we could have avoided this situation, jerk!” Or “I’m going to punch you in the balls and I don’t even care that you’re a chick,”
Instead of all those much more eloquent statements, I politely said “I’m sorry, I wasn’t aware these seats were saved.”
Oh being a better person…maybe I should stick with eye rolling and dog kicking.
