People Have Gone Mad!

From millennials to Gen Z and from politics to religion…. people have gone mad! I don’t get it, really! We are taught at a young age to respect others and use our words kindly. So why do so many people today act so disguising? For those of us with parents who actually took the time to teach us manners, morals, and respect, I find myself scratching my head at some of you and your public behavior!

The controversial arguments over politics, religion, immigration, sexual preferences, and whatever the hell else you believe and argue about, has gotten completely out of control! Humans in survival mode are chaotic and beyond rationalizing! They panic and are extremely violent! I’ve found myself in complete shock after hurricane Ian. Watching a man in a gas station yelling at a lady over the direction of the line! Like first of all SIR, that lady was here 30 minutes before your arrival, and your next in line so calm the hell down! Why do men think they have the right to speak at women instead of speaking to women? Men today speak at women with such disrespect, and it makes me sick!

Do none of you have boundaries? Have you lost all respect for humanity? Do you know how to look in the mirror and judge yourselves before you point your fingers at others? Do you listen to the words coming out of your own mouths? How about your tone and body language used when you speak? This negative and toxic behavior must stop! For the sake of our society’s mental health and our children’s, children’s lifeline, this behavior must come to an end!

MY BLOG MY RANT!!!

First of all, LGBTQ community, I get it! You have had to hide in the closet for so long that your like Rapunzel who finally escaped her castle! I totally get! In fact, many women who live in countries that have limited, or no rights, are speaking up.  And I get it! I really do.
We have all experienced a time in life where we felt like Rapunzel stuck in a castle (or should I say ‘stuck in a dungeon’). We feel alone with no choices and no voice! I understand! I really do! I’m completely compassionate about people and their stories!

But if Im completely transparent, I really wish EVERYONE WOULD LEARN TO STAY IN THEIR OWN DAM LANE!!!

How is it okay to band religion out of schools but push LGBTQ in schools? Some of you sound like a bunch of contradicting, selfish, and inconsiderate assholes when you speak! Yes, I said that out loud! MY BLOG MY RANT!!! (Do you see what I am doing here? Keep reading you’ll get it eventually. Maybe?)

You are no different than the radical Christian Cults and the politicians that push their beliefs on people, using fear and scare tactics to convert people! If you’re attempting to convert people to think and live exactly as you do, you’re not a good person! Bottom line! This behavior hurts our communities, and is teaching our youth anything but good morals, manners and respect!

This new age behavior patterns are impacting our society with protests, violence, and division! When we should be spreading, knowledge, wisdom, kindness, love, and respect for individuality. And let me just add here for those who say they are “peacefully protesting” NO! YOUR PROTESTS ARE NOT PEACEFUL! How the hell, is protesting ANYTHING publicly, a sign of peace???

Get your priorities and mindset in Check! Hurting others at the expense of benefiting yourselves is not JUST! How do you appreciate me going on rants like this? It’s a total contradiction, right? Wrong! You’re in my space! My blog! My Post! Are you getting it yet? It’s just ignorance and lacks kindness, humility and integrity!  Do you even know what a protest is? It’s screaming your own beliefs, while kicking someone else’s beliefs down! How is that peaceful in any form of life? Your beliefs come from your life experiences, and you choose your life experiences with choices you make! YOU MAKE YOUR OWN CHOICES! Let’s make that very clear! How you act and react is a choice!

Your CHAOS and actions are not justified because you place a sad story behind it! Let me remind each and every one of you that EVERYONE …no matter color, race, religion, political views, gender, or belief system, EVERYONE HAS A SAD STORY ATTACHED TO THEM!!!

You’re Not Unique!

You’re not the only one who thinks, feels or acts the way you do! Your story may be special to YOU! And you may feel unique, but you’re not unique if one other person resonates with you! Unique means “THE ONLY ONE OF ITS KIND”! If you want to be unique, you can’t be a follower of trends, and you must not push your ideas to force others to speak, walk, talk, dress and act like you! Not if you want to be Unique!

Do you know why people get followers, likes, and genuine comments on social media? Because someone else resonated with their story!!! THATS NOT UNIGUE! Some of you follow me, because somehow the things I say hold some kind of value or meaning for you personally. My words resonate with you somehow. That doesn’t make me different or unique! It makes us connected in some way. And isn’t that what we are all here searching for? A human connection?

So many of us are addicted to having a huge following and yet, we think we are, or we want to be unique! I have news for you luv, you’re not unique if you have a huge following! You’re just alone in a great big world of beautiful souls who all crave attention and a connection! Thats right, I said it! “Influencers, leaders, and people in power crave attention, a voice, and control of their environment!” And if you’re in their environment, they will control you too!

I find it so fascinating how people get so depressed, angry, or bitter when they feel different then their family members, or even other people in their local community. Some people even feel this huge sense of lack because they have nothing in common with people around them. But, if you want to be unique, you can’t fit in to everyone else’s bubble! If you want to be unique, you have to be different then everyone else in your world! And in reality, that looks really lonely!

This new age Belief system that says “push, scream, throw a fit, protest, and project your beliefs onto others, just to get your voice heard”, or just to make a buck; only makes you special for your arrogance, violence, manipulation tactics, and division in the world you live in. Being “special” is NOT equal to Unique! BUT Unique is equal to being different! Let’s be clear on one thing, “Being different doesn’t mean trending”! It means staying in your lane and staying in your lane means having boundaries! In other words,

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE BOUNDARIES, THEN RESPECT OTHERS BY REALIZING THEY HAVE BOUDNARIES TOO! 

People have gone mad because their being forced to believe things that don’t resonate with them personally! Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, should learn the difference between sharing information, and using information to persuade others. The words you use can give life to one person, but may cause hurt, pain, and scarcity to another. If you don’t choose your words wisely, you could be doing more damage than good to your community. You want cultural diversity? That means respecting and accepting other people and their cultural beliefs!

When you push (shove, press, drive, force) your ideas onto others, who are special in their own way, you’re only causing division and madness! Your story is not my story, and my story is not your story. That means if you’re pushing your beliefs on me and those ideas conflict with my own beliefs, I will become confused, and then bitter. Furthermore, if you keep pressing the subject aggressively, I could become hostile myself. This is the root cause of anger, violence and division in our society today! Are you hearing what I am saying? I have boundaries and I have certain moral values that I live by. These are my beliefs and I feel very strongly about them. Do you have boundaries? Thats great if you said yes! Now, stay in your lane!!!

For example, I wouldn’t push my God on people by screaming biblical versus in the street. That is just a really example of my God who is not a dictator but rather a God that Loves and gave us “Free Will”! I would never threaten people with scare tactics to get them to believe in my God. Respectfully, I don’t care to have LGBTQ beliefs shoved down mine, or my kids throat. These are my boundaries for own life, it is not me judging anyone else for their lifestyle. I just don’t want to live it or be a part of it. Just like an atheist doesn’t want to be a part of a Christian group. If we want diversity, we must learn how to respect our differences without affecting each other in the process. I’ve been to many drag shows in fact I’ve been on stage with them, but the performances we did and things we said were NOT child appropriate!

Now, obviously, the above content is just a few examples for consideration. My point is, when we are showing public displays of our beliefs, whether it be on social media or in at a public place; using certain words, tones, body languages and our actions, do affect everyone in and around that space. If you don’t want people to stare or judge you, stop bringing attention to yourself! Just like the “In God We Trust” so many pushed out of the schools, I don’t want my children living a life that I feel devalues their human experience.

People are going mad because the moral values of our country are in conflict with the diversity of cultures. When you have a multitude of people in one room with different ideas, you will have conflict. But these conflicts don’t have to cause havoc! These conflicts don’t have to cause division and violence! We could live with each other in this great big world with our own boundaries. But we must respect others for their boundaries as well! We can accept others for their differences, but we don’t have to agree with or live by their rules. 

So as a Conclusion to This Article, I’d Like to End by Saying This…

“Stay in your lane! Remember you will get more bees with honey! So, try your hardest to remain humble and kind in this next season of life. I promise, you will discover more peace in life when you make less noise!  Always, always remember to stand your ground, but don’t kick others down in the process. “To live with integrity means to always be honest and TRUE TO YOURSELF!  But don’t expect others to hold your same truth”. Hold strong to your own principles and moral values, by sharing! BUT Never EVER Dictate! Nowhere does INTEGRITY read or enable us to crush someone’s soul just because their principles don’t resonate with our own. That will never bring you complete happiness. The rules you allow into your boundaries are the morals you will live by. So, tread lightly where one can mislead you or where you can mislead others!
