If You Listen You Lose


Have you ever noticed how some people always have something negative to say? They seem to have the ability to find bad in good no matter what. "You'll say the sun is shining". They'll say, "yea but it's hot". You say, "thank God it's Friday". They'll say, "yea but I'm broke". What is it about these people?




I'll tell you what's wrong with them. They can't grow the genitals to make themselves happy. They refuse to try and make a better life for themselves. They can't stand their existence. So, they make a dark world for themselves and everyone around them. But, what happens to you if you continue to hang around with them?




If you continue to hang with people with a dark outlook on life, you become just like them. You too will become a loser that only sees the bad in life. You will become a hateful person that infects others with your sickness. You will have people running in the other direction when they see you coming. People will learn to detest even the mention of your name.




If you listen to people that are haters of life, you will have a hard time reaching your goals. They will embed, in your soul, feelings that you can't achieve. They will make you ask questions of yourself like why should I even try? You'll tell yourself that people won't like the book you always wanted to write. Or, you may tell yourself that no one will ever listen to your song and enjoy it. This is what you gain from hanging around with negative people, a loser attitude.




There are times that someone will tell you something that you don't want to hear that is true about you. But, if you hang with people that are just plain dark, you run risk of becoming dark also. You run the risk of putting road blocks in front of yourself stopping progress. If you listen to negativity you will lose your life without even dying.




If you listen to losers, you lose.






Peace to my people

Times Are Hard But You're Alive

Today there are all sorts of problems. The recession is putting people into a state of panic. Jobs are being lost. Homes are being foreclosed. People are losing their life savings. Times are hard, very hard.

As the TV news and every other media outlet find a way to communicate every other 10 seconds or so that the economy is horrible, we should take a deep breath and realize that we are alive. We have breath in our lungs for another day no matter how bad a time we are going through. There a many that have passed to the other side that would love just to breath again. They Cherish the memories of there families and wish that they could see them, hug them, and say that last word to them. But, their time is no more. They will never get to look at their loved one in the eye as they smile at them joyously. They can't laugh at thier family members corny jokes. They are gone.

The dead have found that there are no bills that truly matter. The dead don't worry about losing their jobs. The dead don't care about foreclosure. They could care less about the economy. They just wish that they were with their families, alive.

I know, if you are in one of the situations mentioned above, you are think that I have a lot of nerve. You're thinking that I must not be in that situation. You think that I am in a home and have plenty of food and necessities. You would be correct in that assumption. But, I know that I could be one of the millions that are losing their jobs. I know that I could be forced out into the streets. I know that I could be in the same situation that millions are by the time I wake up in the morning. But, guess what. I will still thank God above for being able to breath. For being able to see my family members and close friends.

In bad times we all deal with all sorts of problems and ups and downs. We lose jobs. We lose homes. We sometimes go to bed without a meal. But most of us wake up in the morning. We see the sun shine. We see our families breath, smile, laugh. We may be doing all of these things in a Salvation Army parking lot. But, we are together and alive and that is worth a million homes. That's worth more than any job. That's worth more than anything in the world.

Times are hard. But, you're alive.
