a little rant....

I've been hmm-ing and haw-ing about whether to write this post, but here it is...


PEOPLE, GET A FREAKIN' LIFE!!


Phew! That feels better!


Now, that being said, let me explain...

When it came for the American elections, people were going nutso over who to vote for and blah blah blah. And then when Trump won, all hell broke loose! I still think all hell would have broken loose had Hilary won anyways, but whatever. Now that Trump is in office, people can't stop bashing him. With all my personal opinions about him aside, this bashing NEEDS TO STOP!! Do I think there could have maybe been a better candidates who could have run for President and won? Yes. However, Trump is the President of the United States of America. The likelihood of him being overthrown is very minimal, especially since there's been an awful lot of talk, and from what I know, not a whole lot of action taken place for this to happen. So maybe, just maybe, instead of the constant bashing and negativity, how about more positivity and dare I say it prayer over him as the President of a nation!

Now, being that I am Canadian, (and proud to be, I might add!) I also have my own personal opinions about our Prime Minister. Whatever my feelings are of Trudeau, I CHOOSE to pray for him and his decisions regarding the nation that I live in. Why? Because what good will my constant negativity and belittling about him do? Nothing. It's not like my thoughts are going to somehow transfer to him. However, my prayers DO have the power to change things, because my God is good like that! And not only do I pray for Trudeau to make good decisions for Canada, I also pray for Trump to make good decisions for America.



Really, I think people need to start focusing on their own lives, and stop bashing other people's decisions. Whether it comes to parenting decisions such as co-sleeping vs. sleeping in own room or baby led weaning vs. purees, or one's thoughts on is it ok for a mother to kiss their child on the lips, or a grown man to kiss his father on the lips (this is one that just came to my attention... Tom Brady). Personally, I think so many things that people end up getting worked up about, and feel that they are right and everyone else is wrong, are ridiculous!! If your life is so horrible or boring or whatever that you have to bash other people's decisions, maybe you should fix that! Start living your OWN life, and stop focusing on the small details of life that in reality have no significance!



In conclusion:
Pray. Pray for our leaders. Those at the national level, the provincial level, and the local level.
Get a life! Stop focusing on other people's lives and decisions, and start living your own life!
