Stop Whining!

If you can’t tell…..I’m a little aggravated! Last night was the “scholarship awards” night. The one that I blogged about the other day? The one that, again….I wouldn’t be attending with one of my kids. Yea, that one.

Sounds bitter, huh?

I don’t want to go into all the crummy details…. It’s stupid and even more than that it’s painful. But I just want to get off my chest this one thing.

If you WON a scholarship (OF ANY KIND) DO NOT GO ON FACEBOOK AND COMPLAIN ABOUT NOT WINNING ENOUGH!!!

Seriously, SHUT UP!!

First, it makes you look rather ungrateful! Second, it reveals a great deal about your worthiness to win anything.

YOU LOOK AND SOUND DUMB!! Stop it!

Another thing. Don’t text your closest friends that were vying for some of the very same scholarships that you were and complain that you didn’t win AND EVERYBODY KNEW YOU AND ANOTHER STUDENT WERE MOST DESERVING of it. Boo, to you dear friend. That is hurtful and tasteless!

I will say this one last time…..MANY deserving students do not win financial scholarships. It happens! But for those who do win them, be thankful.

THE END!!

Moving forward. I was just told by a fellow staff that Ally was voted 3rd Best Dressed of her senior class. Yay, for you my beautiful girl! You are best in so many ways. One of my favorite? You aren’t interested in advancing yourself over anyone else. Competition to be #1 isn’t even on your radar. I like that about you and so does God.

Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others. – (1 Corinthians 10.24)
