The Rant of the Year

In the last year I have been through a lot. To put it mildly.

       There have been times when I wanted to pull my hair out and scream, cry, throw myself to the floor with the enthusiasm of a 3-year old being withheld the worlds most awesome toy.  I am proud to say that I refrained (for the most part) to give into my child-like cravings of emotional display. Though through all of it I kept picking up the pieces anytime one was knocked from me like a decaying mummy 'zombie-walking' through life, the daily flotsam and jetsam carelessly being swept away with the tide.
       I must say that my spine is a bit stronger now.  Some may even have the nerve (right) to say that I act as though something is stuck up my ass.  In an essence something is (haha).  All of the bullshit that has been tossed at me, all of the cruel words and heartless actions have cause an increase in my level of "Bitch" that the general population gets to behold.  Once only reserved for the few and the special I now unleash the bitch in me whenever I feel the need and I offer no remorse.  In short, I no longer care how I make YOU feel.  I am living my life and unless I come by your house and add salt to your morning pot of coffee or bite your dog I really feel like no one has any right to even voice their opinion of me or mine.
       Through the last year in observation I have gathered that this opinion of mine, newly found, is not an original idea but one the masses seem to be sharing.  It is unfortunate that so many have stopped caring about the people who live together on this planet and the planet itself.  If more people cared more often in one day about another human being as opposed to what they would gain or acquire in one day I believe that the whole world would see a dramatic shift in consciousness.  And the result would be staggering.
       With that, I will make it my personal challenge to be a better more loving and caring person to the people I come in contact with today.  Perhaps I can start a ripple effect.  Or at least open someones eyes to the global epidemic of "Not Giving A Shit".

Who's with me?
