The beauty of being a believing Christian is having that sweet assurance that I will be going to heaven someday to hang out with my Jesus for eternity. No more troubles, pain, and sadness. When I think of that, I find myself thinking of more specific things that I will absolutely NOT miss.
Here are a few:
1. Politics
Yes, any political decision that is made can directly affect my work, my family, and myself. Yes, it is important to pay attention to and know what is going on in politics. But, it’s messy and I don’t like it very much.
2. Love handles
That bulge that sticks out just enough that makes me want to pull my pants up just a little higher so that the handle is not as obvious when it’s sticking out of my pants. Even though I eat well, low intake of sugar, and exercise on a regular basis, I still have that hand full of “love” on each of my sides that will NOT go away. They should be called hate handles instead because they are only getting bigger as I get older.
3. Dead animals
Thanksgiving turkey that still looks like a turkey. Fried Chicken. Steak. Road kill. Dead animals make me sad. One of the reasons why I am a vegetarian is because the concept of eating something that was living, breathing, and cute at some point and is now chillin on my plate---dead? No thank you.
4. Student loans
I am thankful and grateful for having the opportunity to go out of state and having an amazing college experience for those 5 years of my life. I discovered a lot about msyelf, found myself (for the most part), met some great people, learned a lot, and now have a college degree hanging on my wall. But now I'm in debt thousands of dollars to the government because of it. Sweet.
5. Menstral Cramps
That’s right…. I said it! Cramps! My appetite changes for those few days because either everything gets me nauseous or I want to eat every sweet and fried thing in sight. Did I mention it is absolutely painful? I am bloated so it looks like I’m 5 months prego. I’m not in the best mood because well…. would you be if you were in constant pain for 4 days and medicine didn’t work? You can’t call in sick to work because how lame does that sound. “Hi, boss. I can’t come in today. I’m throwing up because I’m cramping. No it’s not contagious….”
It sucks and it’s painful. End of story.
6. Keeping Up With the Kardashians
Need I say more?
7. Bad people
Bad people are mean. Bad people don’t give a snot. Bad people make horrible decisions. Bad people don’t know how to treat other people. Bad people are rude. Bad people need Jesus. Bad people need to just go away.
8. Speeding tickets
Okay okay okay…. Yes it is important to have rules and regulations to live in a safer community. But when you are going 80 on a 65 with no cars around you and no one is in danger and you’re driving back to Vegas from California on an open road… what’s the harm in that? Just sayin.
9. Break ups
I’ve experienced my share and I know I’m not the only one. Break-ups are something no one ever wants to go through. There is no medicine you can take to make the pain of a break up go away. There are many different ways to cope with a break up but many of them are not appropriate, healthy, or wise. You can’t take a medicine to erase the memories you had together. Appetites change. Life is different. You are different. Break-ups suck. Period.
10. Really really expensive stuff
$42 for a salmon at a fancy restaurant? $5 for a bottled water at a concert? $6 for a bag of candy at a theater? $8 for toilet paper? $84 for a blouse? Seriously… will this blouse get me a husband? Cure AIDS? End world hunger? What is so stinkin special about this blouse? Expensive and overpriced things have been one my pet peeve for years. What is so special about something that it has to be over priced? Ridiculous.
