We Have Known It As Kid's Game. It's A Show Of Strength And Endurance. In Most Cases There Is Always A Winner. The Ultimate Prize Is Bragging Rights. You Can Mix And Match The Players On Both Sides That Can Change The End Result. A Different Group, A Different Day Can Bring Different Results Depending On The Makeup Of Both Sides. But What If It Is No Longer A Kid's Game. I Will Be The First One To Say I Have Seen Many Grown Up People Acting Like Children. I View Myself As Quiet And Reserved. I'm Not Quick To Pass Judgement On Others Based On A Persons Opinion. To Be Quite Honest I Must Admit I Am A Bad Judge Of Character. I Always Assume Whoever It Is That I Am Speaking With Is Honest. If You Lie To Me Give Yourself A Good Pat On The Back. You Actually Accomplished Nothing. Don't Get Me Wrong I Am Not Declaring I Have Never Lied. I Cannot However Remember A Time I Lied In An Aggravated Manner That Would Or Could Cause Harm In Any Way To Another Individual. I Am Far From Perfect. I Have Made My Share Of Mistakes In Life. Probably More Than Others.
I Lost Count In The Years I Have Been Blogging. I Suppose I Can Take The Time To View Previous Blogs And Come Up With A Number. The Bottom Line Doesn't Matter To Me. Since Day 1 I Have Stated My Blogs Would Always Be Uplifting Or In A Positive Sense. There Will Be Times However When You Must Climb The Platform Of Your Soap Box And Wave Your Arms And Make Sure You Have Everybody's Attention. I Use To Be Very Vocal Of My Opinions On Various Issues. It's Been Awhile Since I Sounded Off.
If There Is Only One Thing I Have Learned About Life It Must Be That It Is Too Short. The Eyes That Are Reading This Blog Is Only A Speckle In Time. So Much Time Has Been Recorded Before Us. Time Will March On After We Depart. I Have Been Fortunate In Peeking In The Past lives Of Those Who Lived Before Me. I Have Read Days, Months & Years Of Happenings In The Life Of Those Who Take The Time To Jot It Down. Notable Entry's Of A Diary Can Not Only Be Personal It Can Be Informative.
Each Day I Would Find A Date I Thought To Be Interesting In Some Way. I Would Post It Every Day On My Facebook Page. I Did This So I Could Share What I Felt Was Very Interesting. Taking A Trip Back In Time. Words That Were Written Long Before I Was Born. Even Though I Find Each And Every Day To Be Different Than The Other, I Chose To No Longer Share These Daily Post On My Facebook Page. I Did This Out Of Respect. Getting Into These Diaries Each Day, Turning The Pages, Contributes To More Than Just Your Normal Wear And Tear. I Learned This Early On When I Began Collecting Danville High School Yearbooks. The Oldest Book Dates Back To 1904. You Must Be Respectful Of Age. I Concluded Posting My Great Grandmother's Diaries On The Anniversary Of Her Death.
I Continue To Post Daily Writings From My Grandmother'd Diary. My Mother's Mother. I Recently Began Posting From Entries Of My Mother's Diaries. I Had Hoped I Would One Day Be Given Her Diary. I Call It The Book Of Life. An Open Book Of Names, Dates, Births, Weddings, Deaths, Etc. I Can Wander Back In The Years I Was Much Younger. Remembering The Good Times And The Bad.
Recently Someone Had Made The Comment To Me Posting From My Mother's Dairies Was Creepy. Since She Is Still Alive I Suppose This Person Didn't Think It Was Appropriate. What I Failed To Mention Was This Person Is Not My Mother's Biggest Fan. I Have Been Able To Steer Clear Of The Fallout Of This Dispute. I Try Not To Get Involved In Other People's Squabbles. I Am On Facebook Rather Often. Even Though This Person Does Not Like My Mother We Had Been Able To Be Civil To One Another In Spite Of Their Differences. When This Person Said It Was Creepy And "Others" Felt The Same. She Sent Me A Private Message Telling Me She Is Putting Me On Hide Because She Didn't Want To See These Diaries Everyday. Instead Of Just Scrolling Past Them She Decided To Eliminate My Post So She Won't Be Subjected To These Diaries. Of Course She Enjoyed My Great Grandmothers Diaries Because It Was Her Grandmother And It Brought Back Some Wonderful Memories From Her Childhood. Since She Did Not Elaborate Who These "Other's" Were I Made The Decision To Delete Her Entire Family. I Don't Need Negative People In My Life.
Even Though She Did Not Like My Mother I Kept Her As A Friend On Facebook. A Lot Of People Would Not Do This. We Never Discussed Between Us Her Reason Behind Her Dislike Of My Mother. Once Again I Try To Stay Positive In My Life. Once A Person Become Negative With Me They Are No Longer Considered A Friend Of Mine On Facebook. Unfortunately, When I Made The Decision To Block All Of Her Family I Knew There Were Some Innocent Bystanders That Are Not A Part In This "Situation". I No Longer Want To Have Any Contact With This Person Because In My Opinion She Drew First Blood With Me. We Have Managed To Remain Friends For Almost Three Years Without Incident. Just Because Of My Decision To Post My Mother's Diaries She Has Placed Me On Hide So She Won't Have To See It Everyday. That's Fine, It's Her Facebook. If I'm On Hide She Would Not Miss Me Anyway And Life Goes On. So I Suppose I Will Be Put In The Same Group As The Crazy Family. Guess What? I Could Care Less. You Try To Be A Nice Person And You Get Criticized For Doing Something You Want To Do. I Don't Go Around And Tell People I Am Hiding Them Because I Don't Want To Read What They Post. It Is What It Is And Life Goes On. I Will Continue To Keep Positive People In My Life.
In Addition I Have Decided In The Future To Use This Blog Site As A Sounding Board. Please Don't Misunderstand Me, There Will Also Be Uplifting Blogs That You Are Use To Reading. I Have Always Been An Opinionated Person Who Enjoys Expressing My Views On Various Topics. You May See More Of That In The Future. You Will Also Notice I Eliminated The Comment Section. I Did This To Keep Some "Special" People From Throwing In Their Comments. My Words Don't Need Complimented Nor Criticized. They Are My Words. You Can Agree With Them Or Disagree. It Really Doesn't Matter To Me Either Way. What I Am Saying Is We All Have Our Minds To Think. We All Cannot Think Alike.
So In A Nutshell, You Never Know What You Are Going To Read Here. I Suggest If You Are Of Thinned Skin Maybe This Blog Spot Is Not The Place For You. It's Your Call. Have A Wonderful Day. I Know I Will.
