hm...
so it's been awhile since i made a meaningful entry so i think ill make one now. *rants*
alright. this is not to anyone, so dont think im "indirectly talking to you." here we go.
WHY is everyone just hating their parents all of a sudden? like its the "cool" thing to do? "oh man..grr i hate my parents! they are so mean to me! they hate me! they ruin my life!" alright, enough with the bullshit. your parents do not ruin your life. i swear if i read another livejournal entry with all that crap in it i'll pull out my hair.
believe it or not, your parents are the ONLY people in the world who will ever love you unconditionally (with a few exceptions...i.e. scumbag parents). they are always there for you and how many times have you made mistakes and they were right there to fix them? i just found out that a friend of mine whose name shall remain anonymous has his mom help him study for tests by reading the textbook to him. now i dont know about anybody else, but if i asked my mom to do that, she would laugh in my face. and i dont blame her! it's MY grade that I should work for, not her. she's already been through this school crap. i'm sure that if maybe i asked her a question about homework and she knew how to help, she would. but come on. reading the chapter to you while you sit in bed and listen? thats just...not a thing a highschooler would do. if i was that person, and i studied on my OWN and got a good grade, i would be really proud of myself. not my mom. and anyway, to get back on track, come on. what's with everyone hating their parents. i bet they arent half as bad as what people say they are. i hate it when people are like GRR I HATE MY PARENTS! what if your parents DIED tomorrow? what would you do? what would you say? i've honestly asked this question before, and the answer i sometimes hear and cringe with disgust is "i wouldnt care." now that is the biggest pile of bullshit i have ever heard in my entire life. OF COURSE YOU WOULD CARE. you would probably feel horrible for the way you treated your parents. think of how hard their life is. they do the same thing every day, go to the same job everyday, work their ASSES off just so we'll go somewhere in life. so we have a nice homelife. so WE'RE happy. that's their main goal. and now everyone is saying that they hate their parents. well im sorry, but you dont. you just say you do because oh, maybe they did something that you didnt like. oh well. what are you going to do about it. personally, i try to please my mom and i try to never let her down, and when i do, shit, do i know i did. yes, i've been hit by my mom before. i'm sure a lot of others have too. i'm not saying i think it's right, but jesus, if my mom hits me for doing something wrong, i sure as hell NEVER do it again.
everyone is taking everything for granted these days. think about how easy we have it compared to our parents. when they were kids, chances are they were dirt poor, and never could have any of the luxury items that we have today. they could not speak unless spoken to, which was rarely. children, though loved by their parents, were not treated as well as they are treated today. why doesnt everybody give that a little thought? what if you were growing up in the 50s, how would it be? thered be no cell phones, no internet, 3 channels on the television. you might actually be forced to...go outside! and do something! what a thought! i just think that we are so lucky that we are growing up in the time that we are. yeah, i do admit that i would have loved to be around for the 60s, but look at how our lives are now. they are so simple. need to do a school project? no problem. we have the internet at home. no having to go to libraries and looking through countless books. we have everything so easy now. and we ALL complain. i complain. i shouldn't complain, but hell, it is human nature, and i'm only human. basically, the grass is always greener on the other side, and we will never truly be happy, because there will always be an unfilled void, a flaw, within us.
but anyway, how about thinking about how good your parents are to you, atleast for once? please consider everything i've just said. you know that once we grow up,we will look back, and we will probably feel guilty for the way we all have treated our parents. lets learn to appreciate them a little bit more, ok?
