"When it comes to making a bacon and eggs breakfast, the chicken is involved and the pig is committed."
So which are you? The pig or the chicken? Folks I'm just a bit irritated by what's going on around me these days. I'll tell you right now if you aren't part of the solution then you are most definitely part of the problem. We live in an age where the luxury of sitting on your ass and not contributing to the betterment of our communities is no longer an option. You are either working to make things right or you are dedicated to bringing about our demise. A little dramatic? Maybe. But I'm frickin' tired of all those folks "sitting up in the cheep seats", squawking and complaining about one thing or another but refusing to get off their fat asses and commit themselves to something, anything. You know exactly who I'm talking about. The Facebook ranters who seem to have all the answers but do nothing but bitch, moan and complain. The co-workers who are quick to point out issues or flaws with a project but do nothing to step in and fix it. Or those friends who have an opinion on everything but believe in nothing. Somehow it's now become the widely accepted belief that courage is all about speaking your mind but actually doing nothing. You sit up in the nose-bleed seats screaming down at the players on the field all the while stuffing your face with things you feel entitled to. Your hands are soft and clean, clothes immaculate, hair ever so perfect. But where are your scars? Where is the dirt, cuts and abrasions that come with committing yourself to something. Hey, if you want life to be easy and carefree, then knock yourself out. Just keep your mouth shut and stay out of my way. You sicken me beyond words.
