No kidding!!! I think that I could create a Soap Opera based on the people in my life!! I have EVERY kind...the backstabber (a couple of those), the selfish and selfcentered (a couple of those), the deadbeat (a couple of those), the liar (a couple of those), the criminal (a couple of those), and some where mulitple hats or all of the hats!!!
I have one (well more than one) that thinks that everything should be handed to them, for no other reason than because they breathe air. One that likes to blame EVERYONE for anything bad that has ever happened in their life, instead of stepping up and taking responsbilities for their own mistakes. One that doesn't understand what marriage is and that once you become a parent and a wife, you shouldn't go to the bars 3-4 times per WEEK!!! One that is jealous of everything that everyone else has and doesn't understand that if you want more you have to work harder and do more to get further ahead in life. One that likes to complain about how broke they are, yet buys expensive unnecessary items. One that thinks that they are better than anyone and the entire world revolves around them! One that doesn't have enough sense to get out of the rain, let alone drive a vehicle down the road. One that likes to conspire the other members of the family against each other and thinks that other members can do no wrong while others can do no right. One that is ungrateful and unappreciative of anything that is given to or done for them.
The drama gets so bad sometimes that I wish we lived MILES and MILES away so that we would have a good reason not to attend functions with these people. You can tell by the tension that none of them REALLY want to be around certain people or me, I'll admit it. I know that there are several that could careless if they ever see me again, but you know what??? The feelings are MUTUAL!!!! :)
So why do I keep coming around?? I don't know?? Because it is what I am suppose to do. Because it is what God wants me to do. Maybe, I need to be the one that changes MY way and MY attitudes and then maybe it will make those around me change their's as well!!
1 Timothy 5:8 But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
2 Corinthians 6:18 And I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.
