This is a rant that I should have posted months ago! Like eight months ago! So here goes!
Okay so my kids ,mom, and I were coming back from California. We had just left from a wonderful vacation at Disneyland. We were waiting in the passenger pick up lane and we walked past an older lady who was maybe in her 50's or 60's. She tells me that my children are pretty, proceeds to ask me "Are ALL those yours?" followed with a "Hmm you've been busy" comment..
I didn't have anything to say to this lady but "Yes ma'am" and "Thank you". Later on I thought about that short conversation that I had with her and I started to get angry. Have you ever had a conversation with someone and they call themselves saying something dumb or out of the way to you or about and you don't have a comeback until later on when it doesn't even matter? Well this is how I felt. I felt this way because she didn't even know anything about me and here she was judging me. Maybe it's just me. Sometimes I know that I can be really sensitive but this time I don't think I was overreacting.
I thought about what I would have said to her. I replayed the conversation in my head. I wanted to tell her, "Yes I've been busy, yes ALL those are mine, BUT I was also married when I had my kids and NOW my husband is deceased". Let's not get it twisted!I wasn't just running around getting knocked up by whoever. Why are people so quick to judged another? I'm pretty sure she is in no way, shape, or form perfect. No one is! Even still she shouldn't have been judging me! She is not God! She did not know my story or my situation.
People need not to be so judgemental. You never know what the next person has been through. What if the one horrible thing you say to a person is the last thing that they ever hear? That's all for my rant everyone. See you in the next blog.
