Chat Buddies KINDERGARTEN This
seems as good a spot as any to place this; it's something I've been pondering
for some time...but it's been on my mind more and more lately. Have ya'll
ever seen something...like for instance...someone at the Wal Mart service
desk...who audibly SIGHS when it takes longer than they think it should
for them to be waited on? Doesn't that irritate ya? Well, it sure does irritate
me. Every time I see it, I want to say...'Remember KINDERGARTEN? When you
learned to wait your TURN?' It's amazing that as adults we can forget the
lessons that we were SUPPOSED to learn way back when...and that we can revert
back to some of the MOST immature and hurtful behaviors without even realizing
we've done it. I'm not talking about goofing off and having fun...it's nice
to forget you're an adult once in awhile and just LAUGH...what I'm talking
about is the other stuff...the bratty, I didn't pay attention or learn to
play well with others in Kindergarten stuff. Things like disregarding another
person's feelings...which is easy enough to do online I guess...or even
worse, intentionally trying to hurt someone...just because we don't stop
to think that the typed words we see on this screen are connected to real
people with real feelings. Or things like judging someone...when we don't
know a thing about them really...and it doesn't matter if we don't like
them or if they don't like us...what matters is that we consider whenever
we have any kind of contact with another human being that no matter what,
we can never REALLY walk a mile in their shoes. The funny thing is...we
can revert back to the Kindergarten behaviors and hurt people all day long
without a thought...but when it comes to forgiveness, forgetting, or apologizing,
we're NOTHING like Kindergarteners. Too bad, huh. We choose to grow out
of the good stuff and hang on as tightly as we can to the bad stuff. Maybe
we all need to go back to Kindergarten. ;) Brats Little Sister ![]() The co-kegel queen... her hubby's smilin for a REASON...hehe ![]() Hubba huuuuubbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaaaaaah ;) Honey, where the heck have you BEEN? ![]() My "almost neighbor", and one of the sweetest men I've met in my life. :) ![]() See!
