High School is Over

Do you ever want to just grab some people by the shoulders and scream,

 "WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU?!"  

It's come to my attention that there are some people who just really don't like me. But they have zero reason to not like me.  They've even blocked me on Facebook for no reason.  They probably don't have any reason TO like me either, but whose fault is that?  There are plenty of you who remember me as a huge bitch or someone who had a whoooooole lot of attitude in high school.  Well, here's the kicker.....

HIGH SCHOOL IS OVER.

If we were all the same now as we were in high school, the world be a sad, sad place.  We've all grown up.  So why are some of you so set on your opinions of me, or anyone else, from 8 years ago?  There are some of us who have married each other, and some who have had kids together, and some couples have formed that would have once deemed the most unlikely pairs EVER.  But that's what happens when you give people a second chance.  That's what happens when people grow up and become adults.  That's what happens when you stop bullying me and give me a chance to be normal without always feeling like I have to defend myself.  

Challenge: 
Befriend someone from your past that you normally would have never been friends with.  You really might be surprised at who has changed, and who you're insanely compatible with.  Don't be so close-minded.  And stop being mean to people based on what you used to know about them.  

You never know who might turn out to be the doctor who saves your life, the policeman who pulls you over, the nerd-turned-porn star in your favorite "movie," your kid's teacher, or your server at a restaurant.  Rule #1 of eating in restaurants: don't f*** with people who handle your food, right?  Make amends, be nice, stay humble, and kiss your favorite sushi chef.  Just because.

"Someday, I'll be livin' in a big ol' city. And all you're ever gonna be is mean."
