MySpace Migrated Blog #1

Do you ever get the feeling that no matter what you do, some people will just never be happy? You can kick yourself in the ass all you want and force yourself to make personal sacrifices left and right to please someone else, but there are just some people who can not be pleased.

Think about it - you work your butt off to make something you are sure someone else (or a group of someone elses) will just absolutely LOVE! You present it and wait for the oohs and aahs to start. What do you get? "Well that's nice, but I'd like it better if you did this." "How about this color instead." "Uh, thanks" or the worse - if you have made a change to something instead of creating something from scratch - "WHY DID YOU CHANGE IT?!?!" I think there are some people in the world who are so afraid of change of any type that they are missing out on a huge list of possibilities. How do you discover the sweet seduction of cherry cordial ice cream or the comfort in a bowl of homemade soup if you're stuck on "my parents always bought this kind" vanilla ice cream and Campbell's from a can?

What this world needs is more people who are not afraid of change, appreciate what they are given, and don't complain about every little thing.
