W I D E Stance
Guys, have you ever went to the bathroom and stood next to the “wide stance” guy? This is the guy who is practically standing in your urinal while he is peeing in his own. The wide stance is typical of the guy who has had too much to drink. The wider the stance gets, the more drunk he is. This helps him keep his balance. This guy also spits like five times while he’s doing his business. He may also have a beer with him in the bathroom. He tries talking to you while you’re next to him peeing. Dude, if I don’t know you outside of the bathroom, do not talk to me while our junk is out. If you want to say something to me about the game or how lame this place is while washing our hands, fine. Other than that though, take your drunken, wide stance self and get to steppin’.
Significance>Success
When one measures their worth in this world they must remember that when they leave it, they take with them nothing. No money, no houses, no cars, and no possessions. Many people work very hard to achieve these “prizes” in life, and rightfully so. It’s a sign of hard work, and one feels very accomplished by surrounding themselves with nice things. However, bigger accomplishments can be made when you contribute and make an impact on someone else’s life rather than your own. See, when you touch someone’s life or differ it in a positive way, you “live on” in their lives after your own death. That’s the type of wealth that is infinite, and that’s what we all should try to achieve for each other.
Sing Sing Sing
Do you ever notice that hearing a song at a particular time in your life changes it’s meaning? We all have a tendency to put meaning behind things, and that meaning can change by what we are going through or who we are surrounded by when we hear a song, see a movie, hear a sermon at church, etc. It’s funny how the mind works and can be our friend and so positive in one minute, and totally bombard us with negative thoughts like an enemy would in the next. Furthermore, even when we sing a song at various points in our life it can be taken differently. For example, when I used to sing my ABCs as a 1-4 year old, I would hear claps and “good job” talk from those I was surrounded by. NOW when I sing my ABCs, people just look at me like I’ve lost my mind. What happened to the claps? LOL
A Randumb Thought by Mom
“There is a skinny girl inside of me trying to get out, but if I eat enough chocolate she usually stays put.”
Perspective… Get it
Listen, I’m a dork. I’m not in dork denial or anything. I can admit that I’m a dork and I actually enjoy who I am and how it makes me unique. But it does not define me. I am constantly growing and changing. When I meet new people and add their perspectives of life to my own, I grow as an individual. Everybody is different (different strokes for different folks), and nobody thinks, feels, and does things exactly the same as everyone else. To have successful relationships and a meaningful life, there must be this growth and compromise in our personalities. People who are full of themselves end up by themselves, believe that. Happy are those who can ride the waves, roll with the punches, and adapt with the people they care about.
HopeFULL Romantic
I’ve often been called a hopeless romantic and I can see why. I fall fast, I write poems, I genuinely care about people, and I look to keep my significant other smiling at all times. Though I understand why I’m called a hopeless romantic, I don’t like it. It makes it seem like I have “less” or no hope in the romantic department. I think the same people who use the term hopeless romantic also say that “nice guys finish last.” It’s hard to deny that both of these seem to be true at times. Often “assholes” or people that don’t care, are the ones that other people are drawn to be nice to. Like somehow your niceness will rub off on this asshole or something. C’mon man. Doesn’t everybody want the type of family, friendships, and relationships where both parties are nice to each other? Look around though… That’s not usually the case. But I personally, will NOT lose hope. I am a hopeFULL romantic, and my poem “I Believe” explains why. My faith in God and belief that the Holy Spirit is in each one of us keeps me ME. I really do believe that God has a plan for each of us. We are right where we need to be at all times. And when things don’t work out the way we think they should, it is because he is trying to teach us a lesson and lead us (our thoughts and actions) in a new direction. His path is found in your heart, so don’t let your mind get in the way of that.
