argh... i'm just ranting now because i feel like the world is taking such a dive.... people have become so fake, and superficial, and materialistic.... it's just plain sad.
it seems like people only care about how big their home is, how expensive their things are, how many they have, and how far down their nose they can look at you when you aren't the same way... i don't know... i guess i just feel like the minority in this world, because i don't care about that stuff.... money isn't what drives my happiness... and yet it seems to drive so many others... it seems to drive the world .... i don't want a big home, i don't want an expensive car (look at mine, it's the bottom of the line in my model....) , i don't want a bunch of expensive bags to carry all my crap in.... i just want to be with my family and friends, have fun and be happy.....
young girls are becoming more and more materialistic and becoming a gold digger is almost admired amongst them.... they are out to find a nice rich man to give them money and let them do what they want... they have no ambition to be independant , self sustaining, or to get a career of their own. they want everything handed to them.... like it's owed to them because they are pretty.... what a sad state of mind.... and yet it's accepted....
well, it will never be accepted in my home... i will always push my kid to be independant, and a self thinker and motivated.... noah does his own thing and doesn't let a lot bother him.... (thats why we call him our "emo kid") but i like that about him... he doesn't need to be accepted by anyone to make him happy.... thats my boy!!!!
alright, i think i'm done venting my issue with the world that we live in..... till next time...

you rock! i think the same thing every freakin' day. i think it's like that especially in california though.
you know, in most parts of the country it's NOT like this at all. it's not like this everywhere. i want Haylee to know that too. i want her to experience other places because i don't want her turning into a pod person (which is what i call these people that you described).
sometimes i wish i had more money...to do my hair every other month (i get mine cut once a YEAR)...to get manicure/pedicures (i've only had ONE manicure in my life and 2 pedicures. no joke.)...to buy new clothes all of the time (i still have clothes from high school and i'm NOT even kidding)...to have a NICE mercedes benz (hello...a nissan isn't that high class, LOL)...to be able to travel all around the world...to even say once that i owned a COACH bag (ALL of mine come from Target or lately I've been getting Roxy hand bags). but WE have something much more important -- we have family, we have LOVE (true love, money cannot buy), we have laughter, we have fulfillment of LIFE. :o))
wow i've written a book! sorry i didn't mean to take over your blog. ;o) i hope you have a better day!
love,
melissa
holly cow...what triggered this one? just curious...
anonymous is terri...still learning how to do this...
this came from knowing people that are this way... it's just frustrating to think that people in the world think that it is ok to be this way... and the fact that most of them don't even realize what they do, makes me insane! argh!!!
