I noticed something today. I live in a cocoon. Let me splain!
Today, I had the fortunate task of being in a Basketball Tourney and winning 2nd place. Now we played (my friends and I) against a really great group of girls. It was such a wonderful event. I had a lot of fun. Oh right, back to the splaining part I’m getting there promise!
After the tournament, I was fulfilling another obligation and I happened upon two girls, who were atrocious. Every other word out of their mouth was cursing, they seemed to hate everything about their lives, I remember being that young, but Still I digress!
I was doing another errand, can I came across a little girl, she had to be at most 9, and on the inside of her arm in a marker that was almost rubbed off was #ssholes. I said nothing to the girl, or anyone else just marked the incident in my head but, it got me thinking. Is this the way other young people act? Is this how I acted. Which made me think way …. way back. I have to agree I acted this way, I was like this and not too long ago, boy was I angry (a story for another time)
I was this hateful to myself and others. Sure (see here I am all caught up) cocooned inside of my life thinking that kids are innocent, young adults care, etc. and so on. All Happy and Rainbows and it’s not. Whether you are 12 or 72 life is always hard.
So for about 4 really great sportsmen-like girls vs 3 angry, frustrated, girls, what am I to do? I think the answer is more to accept everyone as I find them. Try to help when I can and pray always. None of those girls know me, and I do not know them except for this limited interaction. I just hope that everyone finds a way to find some kind of happiness.
I guess I did not really have a point, just something that bugged me I had to get out, nope not kidding you, it had to happen, and now it’s done!
