Everybody Hates me...Don't be silly you haven't met everyone yet



 We live in the generation of texts and emails and facebooking issues finding ways to connect except to actually talk to the person. I can't think of anything more harmful to the art of communicating and to healthy friendships and relationships then just avoiding simply telling someone with love but in the moment what was that? and what are you doing? Instead of all the bottling up and waiting to explode; how about stopping what you are doing and solving the problem in the first place? That being said there are times when there is no problem and it's just your issue and nothing that person needs to change.
If you won't take the stand in your personal relationships what makes you think that you will stand up when something is going on that's bigger then you and bigger than your life. We live in a generation of people who are offended via Facebook and coffee houses but if you have to get up and be uncomfortable and take a stand then they don't want to do it. You are pro-life by starting Facebook petitions forget actually getting up and counseling and talking to the people involved. You’re concerned about crime in your town but going to city hall or starting a neighborhood watch is a little bit much for you.

I'm afraid we are a generation of cowards. We won't take a stand and we won't be hated for any conviction. So many of our views on tolerance and being open minded are more on just not wanting to upset anyone and risk being disliked. We all have that need for love and acceptance for who we are but can we please take a stand. Can you love your friend or family member enough to not put up with any of their crap and help them not make a habit of the wrong things they can do. Can you do more about social problems then sit around a coffee house and sound upset about them? I'm begging you all to be a little more offensive. Take a stand, do something about the problem, be unabashedly who you are. Push people to do the right thing make them love you and accept you for who you are. Do not back off the truth, tell people you love them but you’re not taking any of their crap or letting go of the truth, and besides enablers don't love anyone but themselves. Quit hiding behind your phones and computers and actually make some human contact and in this communication age, communicate that you actually care and that you are going to do something. The world still boils down town to talkers and doers only one shows how much you really care.
