It’s No Wonder…

The adage says if you have nothing nice to say, then shut up. There is a reason for that. 

I was appalled last night when a friend posted the blog post by Curt Schilling, revealing the disgusting tweets he witnessed in response to his proud papa moment for his daughter. Apparently, spreading good news these days is an open invitation to the digital dregs to lift their diseased heads and literally piss all over the twitosphere. (See 38pitches.wordpress.com for details.)

Then, this morning, in pop news on GMA, Lara Spencer reported that the twitosphere was abuzz with ‘concerns’ over a scar on Faith Hill’s neck. For the record, she looked spectacular and gracefully represents a segment of Hollywood that I admire for their kindness and quiet generosity. Why, I wonder, was it necessary to call out the scar? Oh, I know, because it is the flaw in an otherwise lovely package. 

If you believe, as I do, that negative energy is the most destructive force in the universe, then you can understand how clinging to and perpetuating negativity creates a space where growth and innovative thinking cannot possibly thrive. 

I watch very closely the line of demarcation between those that are ‘haves’ and those that are ‘have nots,’ and I don’t mean financially. There is a direct correlation between how you view your world and how you navigate it. If you are the type to deliberately, and sometimes visciously attack another human, then you are very likely leading the kind of existence that is fraught with illness, financial instability and alienation. 

The saying that you get what you give is absolutely true of positive, uplifting energy. You want a positive charge in your life, then make it. You trolls who said criminally negative things to Gabby Schiling, shut up. If it was your daughter, you’d castrate the scumbag that did it. So, don’t BE that scumbag. 

For the rest of you who persist in seeing that the glass is empty, be happy you have a glass and fill the damn thing. 

And yes, it did not escape my attention that I am complaining in this piece. It’s for a good cause.
