Status

What is the big deal about status? Everyone either wants it, or they are bragging about it to someone else. Whether it's church, work, or even in small-talk, someone is always talking about their own personal status. Then, after the initial introduction of the topic, the other person tries to say that their status is higher, or better...It's annoying. I read once that the wisest man of all is the one that truly believes that he knows nothing. This is very true, but one should also realize that if you must proclaim your position to everyone, it must not hold as much weight as you think...or that you just have low self-esteem. Maybe one day people will realize that life isn't all about them, it's about your role and true destiny, then fulfilling it. Not that my Excursion is better than your Escalade...or my island is better than your penthouse. You know? Then you also have the people that think they can do everything because they are good at a couple things. For instance, just because my father is a musician, does that mean he can build a suspension bridge? No...but people with egos the size of Nebraska think they can...I don't get it...maybe I'm not suppose to get it, but it get frustrating sometimes.

On a sidenote:

The Real World SUCKS this year!!! I should've been on the cast for Philly. They need someone with some sense on the show...maybe that is one of the requirements now, have no sense...oh well...
