What are some things/ideas/people/phrases/ words you hope will stay in 2011? What are some things/ideas/people/phrases/words you hope to hear more of in 2012?
I would LOVE it if the general public would become less consumed with the lives of "celebrities" and start living their own lives and dealing with their own problems. WHO CARES why some stupid girl with too much money that she didn't earn herself is getting divorced from the guy she married last week? HOW does it make any difference at all in your life? WHY is our culture so obsessed with what everyone else is doing?
I'm not going to lie, there was a point in my life where I was reading a certain "celebrity blog" several times a day. It happens to coincide with the time in my life when I was extremely unhappy and drinking heavily and didn't want to live my own life. What would happen if every single American took the time to look at their lives, find the one little change they need to make in order to improve their lives, make that change, and suddenly be happier, healthier, and more involved with their own being? They would suddenly find that there's NO REASON TO GIVE A SHIT ABOUT PEOPLE THEY DON'T, AND WILL NEVER, KNOW.
I'm yelling a lot in this post. I can't tell if its because I care so deeply about it, or if its because I'm listening to some really loud music right now. :)
I would like to see more positive posts on my FB feed in 2012. Less "FML"s and more [non-sarcastic] "w00t"s. I'm so tired of seeing people I consider friends look at everything that happens to them in a negative way. I'm not Positive Polly, by any means, but I try to keep my public self, the one I post on FB, the one I share with my friends and co-workers and customers, as positive as possible. We all go through some shit, but I like to believe that somewhere in that pile of shit is a nugget of happiness, and that's why we've got to keep digging. Its absurd and confusing and pretty annoying most of the time, but its the only way for me to get myself out of bed every day. *shrug*
