Oscar knew
It’s time for one of my epic rants. you ready?
One of my favorite quotes: “Everything popular is wrong” – Oscar Wilde
This is true in my opinion.
We’ve somehow become a society of sheep. So concerned with the wrong things, what you’re driving, what you’re wearing, where you live. How many square feet? How many bathrooms? Is it fast? Does it have leather seats?
Sigh.
What the fuck is wrong with people?
Is it just me or are people assholes for the most part? Nobody says please, thank you, nothing. Canadians get teased for being polite. This somehow makes sense to you? If you’re an American and you think it’s funny Canadians are nice, you just might be an asshole. You’re aware of this right?
Sweet, there’s something to be proud of.
BE THE CHANGE
If you’re tired of people being shitty to you, how about you stop sucking? If you haven’t noticed yet, we learned this as babies and we still do it today. We mirror what is in front of us. If you look crabby, people think you’re crabby. If you look happy, you’re perceived as being happy.
(or stoned, drunk, on meds, meh… same diff)
YOU GET WHAT YOU GIVE
Why is this not common sense? Everyone is so sure the world is out to get them.
Newsflash – the world doesn’t give two squirts of piss about you. The only one that has your back, IS YOU.
I’m not jaded, I’ve just been around enough to see this as being true. Feel free to correct me if you feel otherwise.
Put positivity out there and oh snap, would you look at that? I am getting positivity back.
This rant isn’t being negative, this rant is a wake up call for some. It was what woke me up not too long ago.
I will without question have at least one message, one email, one phone call asking me if this blog was about that person.
This blog is not about you. This blog is not about you. This blog is not about you. This blog is not about you.
Capiche?
This blog is a collection of utter bullshit I’ve endured over the past month or two. I am tired of hearing people bitch and moan about how rough things are. You have a computer, you have internet, you most likely have a roof over your head. You want to talk rough? Go check out the people with no job to support their families. The people that are back from the war and the banks have foreclosed on their home. The kids with no food in their bellies. The homeless dude down the street that can’t feed his dog.
Go ahead, tell me how your life sucks. No, wait, don’t.
Life might be hard for you right now, but come on, you’re fine. Pick up your shit and get it together.
I’ve been there myself, hardships, shitty things, life deals you a hand you never saw coming. It sucks. It really, truly does but who cares? It’s survival of the fittest and last time I had a story to bitch and moan about, i don’t recall getting paid for it. I do recall getting evicted though or having my lights shut off because I was so busy feeling sorry for myself that I forgot the very basic way life works. You need to work to survive.
Again, NO I am not talking about you. I am recounting my personal life here. If it matches yours in the past, present or future… fucking fantastic!
I can give you some advice and if you are smart and follow it, you’ll be a-okay.
Stop.
Just stop the pattern you’re doing. Keep doing the same thing, how are things going to change?
Benjamin Franklin scribed – “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results”
^ ^ ^ THIS ^ ^ ^
You are the only one that can change things. So.. umm.. change things.
Pick up the pieces, rebuild, you’re going to be fine. Hate to sound cheesy, but you have to believe to achieve.
Yes, things will be hard, that’s how it works. If it were easy, everyone would be doing it, wouldn’t they?
A phrase I like to tell myself.. Leader or Follower. Which are you?
The greatest thing about each day we’re given (and we are given these days, you should never expect them, they’re a gift, use them wisely) is that you get to choose if you’re going to lead the way or follow others.
Hint – FUCK FOLLOWING OTHERS.
Most others are so fucked up, lost in their Facebook status update or keeping up with the Joneses.. you’re better off Leading. Trust me.
Strong people are rare but if you’re still reading, I have a feeling you’re either one of them already or you have the ability to be one of them.
So what’s stoping you? You clearly have a computer, internet, electricity. So what’s your story? Time to start kicking ass?
I’d say yes.
Okay, enough with the rantavitional speech. (new word, feel free to use it as needed. Rant + Motivational = Ranivational)
Time for random shit.
10 RANDOM THINGS INSIDE MY HEAD (now in my blog)
Uncensored, the way things in life should be
| 1 | Alright, stop what you’re doin’, cause I’m about to ruin the image and style that you’re used to. I look funny – but yo I’m makin money see, so Yo world I hope you’re ready for me. – Humpty |
| 2 | If you walk with your nose in the air, you will trip sooner or later. |
| 3 | Just because some random guys told you you’re hot, it doesn’t mean it’s true. It means they want to deposit penis and your vagina bank. I thought all girls knew this? |
| 4 | I am rather excited about this new book I am fleshing out in my head, I am just not sure if I am going to write my books under my “JamesDot” name and get some sort of traffic for the books being that people come to my site to see nipples, toes, bums etc.. or… use my real legal name (Orlando Bloom) and publish them there and have no traffic.. and see what it’s like to be a starving artist. Decisions decisions. |
| 5 | 2011 was a clusterfuck of busy. I chose to quit 2011 when 2012 came to visit. Life has never been more relaxed or enjoyable. I <3 my life. |
| 6 | I have drank milk all my life and JUST NOW I am learning it is bad for you. Wtf. I wonder how long until this is widely known and accepted? I figure it might take some time.. many people do what they were told, without asking questions. When it comes to milk, I was one of them. “It does a body good” etc. umm.. no, no it does not. It depletes bones of calcium leading to early osteoporosis. |
| 7 | I wish i was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller |
| 8 | I like taking care of members that take care of the Bella ladies. Treat the ladies as queens, and I shall repay that kindness tenfold. |
| 9 | My scar is going away already. Holy shit. A month out and my scar is going away. I hope Bryci knows how much i love and adore her for taking such amazing care of me. |
| 10 | I need to eat fewd |
Alright people.. I am outty. Time to go spend the evening with my better half.
Again, I was not talking about you. If your life is sucking, change it. It’s not impossible, what’s impossible is dealing with the mindset that change is impossible. If life is fucked, does it matter what you do? Pick one thing, change it. You’ll see it’s easier than you think.
Make sense?
Lastly, tempting as it might be, yellow snow is NOT LEMONADE SNOW.
Avoid the temptation.
