I Me Mine……

All through the day I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
All through the night I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Now they’re frightened of leaving it
Everyone’s weaving it,
Coming on strong all the time,
All through the day I me mine.
All I can hear I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Even those tears I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
No one’s frightened of playing it
Everyone’s saying it,
Flowing more freely than wine,
All through the day I me mine.
All I can hear I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Even those tears I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
No one’s frightened of playing it
Everyone’s saying it,
Flowing more freely than wine,
All through your life I me mine.

It seems like that is what the country is turning into. I travel alot you all know that, and I see the best of America, I also see the worst. Not counting traffic that’s another story.

Just this evening at Wal-ly World, I don’t know whether everyone is just walking around in shock because of the economy or they are just being aholes, We were run into 3 different times without as much as a sorry/excuse me. And just trying to walk down an asle you have to have a dozer blade to get thru, and I mean the Main aisles!. and when you try to get by people look at you as if to say “Why Should I move?” It seems it has become the new meeting place with huge groups of people just standing in the aisles just visiting, I go to the store to get things and then leave. Not to socialize.

Nuff bout Wal-ly. It seems a lot of people that I thought I knew have turned into I Me Mines. It seems that people nowdays do not care how their actions affect others, In the last year I have seen a lot of peoples “True Colors” . They have just dropped out. When I could do no more for them. MR and myself have had dealings with several persons concerning the property left behind by his Brother. Once they got all they wanted, they disappeared. The thing is there’s still work to be done. And people that P.L. Helped throughout the years have not even offered to help out. Some only wanted to help themselves. Also Now that MR is trying to make some changes, and needs help where are all those that he helped over the years? (those of you who might be reading this know who you are, but I doubt you are) Those who have helped also know who you are. This is not directed at you.

Now before I go on, I must chastize myself some. I do things based on how they will affect myself and family, I have made decisions that have effected others because they have worked out better for me ie: I have told my company (so far it has done no good) that I need to get home EVERY Weekend, They tell me what about the other drivers who need to be home, to which I say “They Don’t Pay my Bills or help with my family and friends”.

But for the most part It seems that most people that I come across are out for just themselves and do not care how their actions effect those around them. I make everyday decisions based on how it will effect others. I guess that makes me a dinosaur in this day in age.
Remember everything you do effects someone else.

I know that this was a scathing editorial but I don’t care what others think……..Just kidding. I remember when we looked out for our fellow man, The Hollies said ” He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother” now it’s get the hell out of my space and If you can’t do anything to better my status I don’t need you. I guess I was born a generation too late.

You know sometimes I have just too much time alone in the truck, and my mind is really too little to be left alone without proper supervision.

  1. Amen, Brother J! You hit the proverbial nail on the head.

  2. “Why should I move”……..I thought that was big city stuff. I blame it on advertising and stress.

  3. I agree Anon, modern advertising generates an “I, Me, Mine” attitude…… George figured that one out way back in the late sixties when he wrote the song….. Things are not as they should be….. I guess it’s the way of the world these days – sadly…..
