I am a lunatic....

I wish you enough

I was recently sent one of those forwarded emails and I usually don't even pay attention to them but this was from a close friend. I read it and was truly moved by it. I have included the most important part which is what really touched my soul. Here it goes:

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear.

I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.

I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.

I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.

I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.

I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.

I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them but then an entire life to forget them.

I wish all reading this enough.

What is wrong with the world these days

I wanna know from others out there in society what makes people think they can treat you any way they want to ?

Here is my beef I was recently in Walmart shopping with my 4 children, I was going to check out and a lady cuts me off to get in front of me so she could be next to check out. I was stunned at first and was just going to let it go but when she turned around and made a smug look I just had to say something. I said to her you know you just cut me off and her reply was your just mad cause I beat you here first. Telling myself in my head calm down, I felt the words coming from my lips "No what you just did was rude." She truns to the cashier and says he is what's wrong with the world today. I was just stunned listening to her go on. The only thing I said in my head was let it go you will not win this one. All I said from there on was Blah Blah Blah...Blah Blah Blah Blah, this really set her off. Yes a bit childish but it had to be said. As I was paying when it was finally my turn she was still standing there going off on me. I repeated my blah blah blahs and left. And life goes on! Tell me your story.
