Minding Other People’s Business …

I know that people really love someone who minds his own business. However, minding other people’s business is acceptable, especially when those people need you. When they don’t need you, stick to your business please. No one needs you there! Your failure to appear will only show that people don’t matter to you and that’s not good!

Be there. Want to be there. There is no need of your sulky presence! No one needs more problems added to the ones already there. If you don’t want to be there, then do not blame people when they do not attend your functions. You brought it on yourself.

Not everyone will be your friend there, but that should not be your worry. You should know what is taking you there. Be involved in it. Remember, people will talk but, they’ll get other juicier things to keep them busy. Whether you are doing good or bad, people have to discuss it. The trick is to not give a hoot!

I think the biggest issue here is how people will see you. Why are you so concerned? Oh, I get it! Fear! Those people won’t live with you anyway. They will be with you for a time. Only you can tell what horrors you encounter in your life. Other people don’t know. Why are you trying so hard to please them?

I read a quote some time back that we struggle so much to please people we don’t know with money we don’t have! Ha! How true! What truth! This truth is witty!

Be free. It is your life. Live free of other people and their assumptions.

Why tie yourself to weird obligations you can’t meet?

You fear people will see you as a broke dude? So? Guess what! The wealthy do it that way, that’s why they can maintain their wealth. Call them names, they have a point.

By the way, people can misuse you. Know when to run!

But, don’t be mean. It is all about balance!

I am not saying that it is okay to be a pauper. I don’t think it is! Poverty happens to be a curse! I am saying that whatever little you have should be used with precaution. First things first, then the rest. I won’t go into motivational speeches! For Christ's sake, buy a book!

I have realized that delusions of grandeur mislead people. You come off as what you are not. It is annoying to the spectators and to you! Be careful about social media, too. It is really misleading! And, funny enough, people love to indulge in lies! I won‘t tell you that I pray for you (I’d be lying), but, I really want those lies to burn in hell. I guess, that’s why I am on my own! By the way, I really like it! Compared to being bogged down by a*****e, I’d take single anytime!

Believe me, it is so liberating!

Anyway, enough with the negative rant, I’m going to be a very blessed lady until it will overflow. The sacrifices I have to make are my biggest stumbling block! Happy? I am happy. I don’t need a person to make me happy. I got over living my life for people. I want to put me first. Others will follow or not care. Both options are very okay with me.

So next time you think about minding someone else's business, please make sure that your attention is needed. There are people who are so used to being on their own, they wouldn’t know concern if it sat on their face!

Be a snob. It is very okay, but, do know when to care. It is not optional. People need you to be there.

Unfortunately, you are not that independent! Know the difference between independence, dependence and interdependence!

In this case, teamwork is a thing!

 Interdepedence!
