The Poop BY: KB © 3.30.15

You know the saying “the truth shall set you free”…well, before it does it will usually make you angry because you’re forced to look at some rather unflattering behaviors. Allow me to elucidate on a couple of things that came to mind over the weekend.

I’m going to expose two types of people and really give you cause to pause and think about why some people are draining, why you can’t seem to get ahead or why you have no verve…think about what I’m sharing and make the necessary adjustments.

You ever run into someone who just steadfastly refuses to apologize? Some people are bold enough to say flat out that they’re not going to do it but for the most part we encounter the people who blame the other party. These people are so adept at avoiding their “SH-TUFF” that they have blaming down to an art form.  I seem to attract these people even though I coat myself in bull- puckey repellent and hang no-pest strips on a regular basis. I can’t imagine the level of pain and self-loathing that prevents people from acknowledging they’re wrong. Saying the words must trigger an avalanche of insecurities and pains.

My friendships are not based on my always saying and doing the right thing. My friends love me in spite of my faults and flaws. I usually come riding into their lives on a cloud of inappropriates, weaknesses and flaws. I’ll announce them in some form of self-deprecation. My friends see past all this madness and they push me to be my best and support me in my weakness. I strive to reciprocate.
The other type of person that’s hard to be around is the individual who suffers from “terminal uniqueness” Terminal uniqueness is the belief that the situation the individual is facing is unlike anything faced by other people. Terminal uniqueness is the pattern of behavior that keeps you stuck in the “woe is me” and makes it possible to utilize every excuse and justification known to man – because you've convinced yourself “YOU’RE THE ONLY ONE”….

To these two types of folks I say GET OVER YOURSELVES!!!! Your thoughts are selfish and self-centered…you’re not the only person in the world and the world doesn't revolve around you. People are going to do what they do, how they do, when they want to do it….are you really so paranoid to believe that everyone and everything has singled you out to inflict something upon your person?

Like I said the other day….I’m learning to relax by letting people be themselves. I don’t need to identify what type of animal left the poop…my job is not to step in it and to avoid the animal…plain and simple

How ya’ livin’?!
