Loud People vs Calm People

Loud people have been some of the most oppressed people in history. All their lives they have been shushed and silenced. What most don’t understand is loud people are not obnoxious individuals with only a desire for attention. Loud people have, in fact, the deepest personalities of all because they choose to express their emotions vocally with anyone and everyone who can hear them. Loud people have ecstatic energy that can only be released through the voice. When a loud person has something to share, they share it. Period. No vague, foggy commentary about the process of a formed opinion, like calm people. Why beat around the bush when you can proudly exclaim your beliefs? And why suppress laughter? An expression of joy and gladness should be boldly projected, not reduced to a weak smile. Loud people would never stifle a laugh. Loud people are the most common carriers of contagious laughter, and why shouldn’t they be? Hearty and deep in the soul is where loud people’s laughter comes from. Loud people’s laughter is the best kind of laughter. Calm people worry too much. They worry about bills to pay. They worry about wrinkles in clothing. Worst of all, they worry about the opinions of others. Why form your own opinion when you can adopt the opinions of others? Why think for yourself when you can simply avoid conflict all together? Why have a backbone? Calm people cannot comprehend the notion of free speech. Calm people loathe being in the company of loud people. They are so easily embarrassed by the sonorous voices of loud people. Calm people will frequently tell loud people to control themselves and lower their voices. What they don’t know is, loud people are precisely the ones that are in control. They know exactly what they want and they will tell everyone who has ears that they are going to get it. Calm people have no control at all. They are indecisive and uncertain, second-guessing everything, right down to which shoe they should put on first in the morning. This is why they have none of the control they seek. If the only difference between loud people and calm people is the noise, then we’ve been shushing the wrong people.

THE LEGEND OF THE RAINDROP

THE LEGEND OF THE RAINDROP

HAS A LESSON FOR US ALL

AS IT TREMBLED IN THE HEAVENS

QUESTIONING WHETHER IT SHOULD FALL.

FOR THE GLISTENING RAINDROP ARGUED

TO THE ANGELS OF THE SKY,

"I AM BEAUTIFUL AND LOVELY

AS I SPARKLE HERE ON HIGH,

AND HANGING HERE I WILL BECOME PART

OF THE RAINBOW'S HUE

AND I'LL SHIMMER LIKE A DIAMOND

FOR ALL THE WORLD TO VIEW."

BUT THE ANGEL TOLD THE RAINDROP,

"DO NOT HESITATE TO GO,

FOR YOU WILL BE MORE BEAUTIFUL

IF YOU FALL TO EARTH BELOW,

FOR YOU WILL SINK INTO SOIL

AND BE LOST AWHILE FROM SIGHT,

BUT WHEN YOU REAPPEAR ON EARTH,

YOU'LL BE LOOKED ON WITH DELIGHT.

FOR YOU WILL BE THE RAINDROP

THAT QUENCHED THE THIRSTY GROUND

AND HELPED THE LOVELY FLOWERS

TO BLOSSOM ALL AROUND,

AND IN YOUR RESURRECTION

YOU'LL APPEAR IN QUEENLY CLOTHES

WITH THE BEAUTY OF THE LILY

AND THE FRAGRANCE OF THE ROSE.

THEN, WHEN YOU WILT AND WITHER, YOU'LL

BECOME PART OF THE EARTH

AND MAKE THE SOIL MORE FERTILE

AND GIVE THE NEW FLOWERS BIRTH."

FOR THERE IS NOTHING EVER LOST

OR ETERNALLY NEGLECTED,

FOR EVERYTHING GOD EVER MADE

IS ALWAYS RESURRECTED.

That's a lot of words.

Hola! Welcome back Christy! Why thank you!

According to Dictionary.com, I know 45,545 words. I dont think that's right. You see, in school we learned that Shakespeare knew about 15,000 words and that the average person only knows 10,000 words. So, you see, I'm confused. If this is true, I must be...*gasp* a linguistics prodigy! Call the nerds, I believe I must join them!

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Now, what kind of a question is that? Whoever first asked that question must have been a total buffoon. Think about this: if the egg had come first...well where did THAT come from? Well, it must have come from...no...you don't think?...a chicken? REALLY!?!?!? And this therefore proves the egg-sistence (teehee...puns) of God because where did the chicken come from? Certainly not an egg because that would start this whole process all over again and we've already concluded it's totally idiocy to claim that the egg came first. THEREFORE, the chicken must have popped up somewhere and had an egg which THEN began the grueling cycle of this stupid question of chicken vs egg. And I know what you're thinking, "Oh but that doesn't prove God! Evolution could make that chicken appear!". Really? You decide to pull the evolution card on me? *sigh* Allow me to break it down for you. The theory THEORY of evolution is about as equal in intelligence as the stupid egg theory. And therefore proves the egg-sistence of God.

The end.

They're just Chatty Cathys, aren't they?

OH. MY. GOLLY.

So, I'm not particularly good at checking my email. Just now, I checked it for the first time since...hhmmm...January? 389 emails...97% of them from COLLEGES. "Christina, we're so impressed!" "I like your talent, Christina!" "Did you get my last email, Christina?" "I haven't heard from you Christina!" "Is this your email address, Christina?" "Get back to me soon, Christina!" "Christina!" "Christina!" "CHRISTINA!"

GOLLY GEE!!! DON'T YOU EVER SHUT UP!?!?!?

i think i'm back

soooo...yeahh...its been like a year since i wrote a new post but i think i might just make my way back into the habit again to improve my writing skills. but FIRST i think i might just send a shout out to my future bosses. the thing is is that in school, all your teachers tell you to be careful about what u put on the internet because, if you apply for a job, the managers can pull up deleted stuff and look at it...yikes...so to my future bosses, i am posting this because i am guilty. a previous post that i made was not very nice and might even be considered as cyber bullying and it was possibly the worst thing i had ever done in my life so i am looking to redeem myself with this post. i am sorry to whoever read it; it does not reflect the positive sides of my character and it was in fact very ugly and it will never happen again.

wellll i feel much better now :) anyways...seee ya
