Atleast you still have hair...

And if you dont I mean at least smile cause you’re alive! Really, it gets to a point where it’s hard to breathe for the people around. Oh you know what I’m talking about…The happiest people in the world.

Yep, I’m talking about that aunt who loves ruining birthday parties, the grandma who hates everyone, the dad who never trusts a soul, and the girl that can never accept a positive compliment.

Has anyone ever told you ‘you look pretty today’ and you responded with  “so in other words I look ugly every other day, just great…” or have you ever told anyone that your tummy hurts and they told you to drink tea and you said  ‘I don’t like it’ then they tell you, ‘well suck on a lemon’ and you “don’t have any”, they tell you to lay down and take a pill and you say “I want to stand and I have trouble swallowing pills” I have one word for you, PESSIMIST!

You are a pessimist if you/r

Pretend to be happy most of the time and can’t be truly happy with what you have.
Extremely negative about everything
Sad about your dog who died 5 years ago
Suddenly get mad over childish things
Intentionally make rude comments about anyone regardless of who they might be
Mad at a party cause everyone is having fun except you
Interested in calling attention, negative attention in this case
Sound annoyed most of the time
Tend to find something negative about extremely positive things!


1st. When you can’t appreciate what you have, you really need to sit down and watch the movie “The diary of Ann Frank” or read the book ‘Breaking Through’ Maybe that will teach you that a lot of people wished they had a warm sweater or some shoes that are actually complete.

2nd.Being negative about everything only makes you a failure because you can’t even reach your own goals, you will always find the downside and go with it.

3rd. Ok so your dog Scott meant a lot to you, that’s good. Remember him for the good things and give thanks to God that He let you borrow Him for a few years!

4th. Getting mad cause someone ate the last piece of pizza is a 4 year old thing, and being upset cause someone around you is sneezing too much is what a merciless person would do. What if that was you?

5th.If your cousin walks out looking amazing, don’t get jealous and ignore her. Are'nt you happy for her? Tell her she looks pretty… wouldn’t you want to hear it too?

6th.If everyone seems to have everything going “right” for them, think again, as perfect as some people may seem they’re not. They- instead of crying about what they don’t have, enjoy what they do have, even if its some taquitos de frijoles con quesito cotija y salsa Mexicana. mm;)

7th.Stop telling people you went to jail and almost got killed, even if were nodding our head, inside we don’t believe a thing your saying! Try to get some positive attention for once.

8th.Stop getting annoyed because your mom tells you what to do, stop thinking you know better because you don’t ,most of us only realize that when its too late.

9th.Finally, if someone tells you that you look pretty its because you look EXTRA pretty that day, and if someone gives you some good advice, try listening to it for once!

#10. Smile Jesus Love You:)

If you don't know, then ask

I’m the type of person that has a lot to say about everything, I think it's probably my super cool vision and how fast I'm able to notice things.

 When I was a little girl I used to ask many questions, and don’t all kids? But my mom said I was a special case. One time I was at a sleepover with some friends, I was about 10 years old. I remember we started to play a very dangerous game. There was about 6 of us, I believe I was the youngest. We agreed that everyone had to say one thing we did not like about each person in the room. I remember telling some girls that I was annoyed when I’d hear them sing along to the radio in the car (I really was btw). Then  it was someone else’s turn to say something about me,

A girl said : “I just think you ask too many questions, unnecessary ones too”
Me: “wait, what?”

Another girl : “yeah you know, like questions about the smallest things”
Me: “really?”

Another girl: “it gets annoying”
Me: “why do you say that? What am I asking that is so annoying?”

Another girl: “see there you go asking more questions”
Me: “why can’t you just answer them?”

We agreed to stop this “game” and go and watch a movie. I will never forget that day... my eyes were actually  opened. I do ask a lot of questions! No wonder I was so smart and annoying! J

So anyway as I grew older I could see how the people that took the time to answer my questions were all teachers in my life, I did less stupid things (notice I said less) . I also learned how to ask myself questions and actually answer them myself. It helped me grow to be an honest person to myself and others. So it got me thinking… annoying or not, ask your question! You never know who will have the patience to answer it and teach you something new.
 
 
To all my teachers out there I love you all! J
