SELFISH

SELFISHNESS: The act of placing one's own needs or desires above the needs or desires of others.
Why the nasty, negative toned blog about the word selfishness? Because I feel like I have seen too much of it lately; in friends, in family and in complete strangers. I dont need to name any names here or really point out specific instances. But I just think, that if you have 2 or 3 minutes of time to spare, which I know we all do. You can at least acknowledge someone in your life. Take 2 0r 3 minutes to write a short email or quick phone call ie: just wanted you to know I was thinking about you & hope you are doing well, or happy birthday, or hi, i miss you, or hey I heard this news Congratulations, etc, etc.....Or let someone in front of you in line at the grocery, or when getting on a train, or at lunch, or driving in traffic.
We, as human beings need to act more like it. Grow up, be mature and do what you need to do. You dont walk in your friends or families or strangers shoes, so what is the hurt in being nice?
I'm mad & I'm done with it all.
You know who you are & for those of you who are innocent in reading this, you know who I'm talking about...we can all think of examples of these people.
I'm just really tired of it all. I have come to the realization(and I am in no way saying I'm perfect) that it really does no good to be hateful, rude, or negative, or be selfish. Think of other people for once, instead of yourself & you may find a happier person inside.
Maybe next time I post, I wont be so disappointed in people.
Until then~
