Lie Awake
1) People would see, speak and act through their own lenses of either joy or pain, hence consider the source ALWAYS. If you're talking to someone miserable, don't expect any sunshine of a response, best stop. If they can't be happy- they wouldn't want you to be.
2) Nobody wants to hear your woes. Really. Others desire to be enriched by your presence, they want to feel good around you and at least have a laugh or two. I'm not asking that you veer away from me when you have troubles, I'll be glad to be of assistance just don't make it a daily habit unless you're actually paying me to be your shrink.
3) Those who own a seemingly superior complex are actually, simply attempting to mask the inferior complex they know they have. It's such a turn off to hear anyone ragging on everyone else- hard to make that person realize that calling someone names in no way embetters him/her.
4) Some friends are born with the default position of opposing you so as to seize an opportunity to feel heard. Why argue back?
5) Not everything has to have a point. Women rant. It's a necessity; allow five to ten minutes and no more; After that, we can go back to being wonderful- if we don't, leave us alone.
6) I really have an intense distaste for anyone (entity or group) who tries to guilt trip me into anything.
7) Identifying what you don't want IS good for it makes you realize what you do want. But leave it at that. Stop bitching. You don't have to push against the unwanted. Saying goes "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" it should've had a continuity- "if it is broke and u can't fix it, play golf."
8) Overreactions, hostility, any form of attack is either a call for help or just symptoms of steroid abuse.
9) The universe has no favorites.
10) Losing sleep can't always be bad. Like now, I'm happily awake.
