Disconnect from all that trouble

By SAVANNAH CUNNICK

Oh, the good ole DISCONNECT NOTICE...

You know ---- from the Electric Company, Phone and Cable Companies for instance.

Sometime, somewhere in our lives...we all have received one. Well, HEY....do you know that it works the same way with PEOPLE !!

I'm talking about how we can learn to post or send our own DISCONNECT NOTICES. Throughout life we meet up with certain folks who just rub us the wrong way, have a devious personality and say the nasty about everyone they meet. Oh, c'mon...you know what I'm talking about.

Some of us have learned how to deal with it and the rest continue to be the target of cruel judgmental comments and take it way too much to heart. We all are born with
the ability to go through life in a positive direction and refuse to let anyone or anything destroy our mission in life and the way we feel about ourselves.

Doesn't it get old dealing with people who never do anything wrong, criticize everyone , use their money (if they have any) as an excuse for power over you and add to their high and mighty. Being born with one of the most popular last names in the county also adds to : I'm better than you are power play.

Time to DISCONNECT from all that aggravation. Even if you don't send that NOTICE .... write it and read it everyday...live your life happily and content with who you are, what you do and how you believe. You easily let these people into your life...you can just as easily DISMISS....DISCONNECT from them !!

You're the one who opened up and told these nosey fakes all your business. You did this in trust and you soon learned to regret it. Ever play the game: Grapevine ? Where you have a long line of people and you start out by telling the first one in line some gossip....and by the time it reaches the last person in line....it's NOT AT ALL what was originally sent. Sounds just like the FACE BOOK game to me.

The funniest part of this whole communication (effort) is that you brag about HOW MANY F-R-I-E-N-D-S you have....(?) You ARE kidding....!

You think that you have STRESS now...keep adding more gossipy buddies to your list. You DO have a choice....the way I see it...DISCONNECT NOTICES all over the place. And all those pictures and personal information you send out to God knows who....ever hear of FRAUD...STRANGERS who are out to do no good to you or your family....? Well, since you have not met most of these creatures face-to-face....time to think again just WHAT you have been dragged into. Please DISCONNECT.....!!

You have a CHOICE....Face Book is NOT a cheap way to find free legal or psychiatric advice. All you are doing is opening up your private life to everyone in the nation. GREAT!!!! All you are doing is talking to people who think they can MAKE IT RAIN at the snap of their fingers !! It would be nice if face book had a SLAP THIS PERSON BUTTON where comments go !

You have people who are using drugs, abusing alcohol, abusing children and animals, suicidal and murderers on Face Book. Friends of mine, who left face book now and in the past, have had some rude and cruel surprises from the whole experience. Have you counted HOW many hours you spend on this face book that you could have spent with your own family and children ? How about getting off your butts and exercise instead ?! DISCONNECT.....

Get the story straight...face to face. Make your own decisions about people who may be different than you. Gosh....are folks all that bad who are of a different race, religion, country....or who are disabled or were born physically handicapped....elderly...divorced...deaf...blind...STOP JUDGING with that face book attitude....you are really missing out on some good friends out here. Alert: deaf people can read lips...the blind can see right through you !

In case you don't understand what DISCONNECT means .... try this for starters: separate from something....break connection...stop...sever...undo.

There you go...does that help? Now, get busy and do away with all this negativity in your life and meet REAL people...make REAL FRIENDS !!
Now, that is POSITIVE THERAPY.

Aunt Martha told me that: Being popular on Face Book is like sitting at a cool table in a cafeteria at a mental hospital....

Cousin Clarence has customers who come into his Pizza Parlor and tell him: I once had a life ... then some idiot came and told me to make a face book account. He tells them to LOG Off and REnew your life.

Cousin Polly said she once suffered from Face Book withdrawal and ended up going outside just to show strangers pictures of her kids. That's when she found out that the face book friends that she did know and supposedly cared...walk right past you in the street. WHO NEEDS IT ....!

That's what you get when you post your drama on Face Book and get mad when people judge you. Are you REALLY that needy and unstable?

Uncle Festus gave Face Book three buttons: Dislike....Who Cares...You're An Idiot. TIME TO DISCONNECT......AND FIND A TRUE THERAPIST !!

Presently, I think most of us have recently sent our DISCONNECT NOTICES to TRUMP AND CLINTON....Every VOTE counts...but my achy breaky heart just isn't in it. It's one cartoon that I am done watching over and over again. God be with us in this election.

I have nothing else to say on THIS subject because we are overly saturated with who thinks what and blah...blah...blah.... on THEIR Face Book Accounts !!! Time to DISCONNECT.....

Well, OK Folks....enough preaching on my part...the warning signal has been sent out...and I DO have EXTRA note paper if you need to jot down your NOTICES.

November is here already....enjoy the cooler weather and colorful fall throughout our area. I'm on my way to start the Leaf Blower ....Have a great week !!

HUGS ,
