I pride myself on not having a lot of filters. I’m not sure if I was born without them, lost them as I got older or I just want to say what I want to say...and I don’t really give a damn what people think. Except, actually I must on some level because what I really wanted to say was I don’t give a fuck what people think....hmm I’m pondering this....I must have some filters. Maybe I’ve learned over the years that people appreciate the truth, unless the truth is a fact about themselves that isn’t pleasant to face.
Random thought...I teeter on “I don’t give a fuck what you think” and “I want you to like me”...unless of course, I don’t like you then I don’t give a fuck.
I’m surprised on a daily basis how many people I know say one thing and do another. For instance, indicate they don’t like the heads of a company but yet go work for them. Is it greed that drives this willingness to do things against our core beliefs? OR is that person exactly like them and has a great ability to hide it from all of us. Why on earth would you work for someone that you did not respect? If I don’t have respect for someone I work for, I leave. Money is not worth selling my soul. I also know that I can’t change someone’s character, so why stick around to see if I can. What if someone is good to me and takes care of me but is really not a good person in general??? When they take care of a “few” is that supposed to balance out the others they’ve manipulated? Do I still work for them...hell no! Will I still appreciate what they have done for me...absolutely!
So while I ponder if I care what people think about me I will also contemplate those of you out there that aren’t who I thought you were. I am who I am, what you see is what you get. I won’t pretend to like you, I won’t be Facebook friends with you and I’m sorry if that is somehow politically incorrect....but I'm not planning on running for office so I guess being true to myself is ok.
