Maybe It’s Me

I am not a people person. That being said, I do not mind mingling with people. I work at a restaurant but am not serving the people so I do not deal with the public. In turn my job at the library is different because I deal with the public. When I said I wasn’t a people person I meant that. I love animals, in particular dogs. Although I do not want to see any animal hurt or suffering. Animals are my thing, and I would do anything to help them. That being said, I love my job at the library. Checking in books, checking out books. Assisting the people that come in any way that I can. Time flies there, plus I’m surrounded by books. What’s not to love?

Society Is Different

People are different now than they were when I was a kid. There is so much distrust in today's world. If someone reaches out a hand and tries to help another person there indeed has to be some motive behind it that is nefarious. They cannot be doing it out of the goodness of their heart, can they?

Aren't We All Weird

We can say people are weird. But is that accurate? Maybe they think I am the one who’s weird? I can be weird at times. We all have the capability of being weird in our own way. Weird is also different from way out there. If you are walking down the street in the dead of winter and you see someone walking the sidewalk with no shirt on, bare chested that’s way out there. Don’t think it can’t happen. I’ve seen these sorts of people at football games.

What is normal anymore? People have their own religious beliefs, their own way of living life. Who are we to say it’s wrong? For them it must be right.

It Is Disgusting

Let’s jump right into a bad subject. At times I think most men have been born with a bad gene. Somewhere along the line many of them have an attraction to young girls, underage girls and boys. Kids that are 6 or 7 years old. What is up with that? It’s disgusting and makes me want to throw up in my mouth when I think about it. But I see it on the news more and more. Child pornography. Little girls and boys being trafficked for the pleasure of men. It’s sickening and I wish with all my heart it wasn’t true. But it’s out there. It scares the heck out of me as it should everyone. 

I'm Not Shy

I am not a shrinking violet, a shy girl or afraid to say anything. That being said, at times it’s better to keep your mouth closed. Some people need to take this to heart and learn from it. Many people have no filters on their mouths and say whatever comes to mind. I find myself in that position from time to time. Lessons learned. Not all people like to hear the truth. Some find it more pleasurable to hide behind a fake facade. We all can’t be pleasant, can we? I don't mind motor mouths and at times find them amusing. 

People will be people. The good, bad, and the ugly. We all have to live together on this earth. Perhaps we should all try to make it an enjoyable experience.

People you can’t live with them, and you can’t live without them. Who says I can't.
