I Am So Tired Of Entitled People

I don't care who you are, where you came from, or what you've done, we all end up six feet under in the end.

An entitled person is someone who believes that they are inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. Everyone can probably think of a few people in their life who have been entitled, who expect more for doing more, or who continuously remind people of the things they have done in hope for extra recognition or some sort of "prize."

Personally, I am sick and tired of entitlement. I do not care what anyone has done in their life, good or bad, we all end up six feet under in the end.

Unfortunately, no matter where you go in life you will be stuck with entitled people. After high school you think most people will realize that they are no better than anyone else, but some people just never grow up. You will find yourself working or having classes with people who get away with murder, while others get ridiculed for the smallest mistake. Everyone in the world plays favorites, sometimes teachers and bosses don't know how to hide it. Often time the favorites are those who become entitled just because they have someone higher than them praising them, or treating them betters than others.

I have learned that the most entitles people tend to be the laziest the people who do the bare minimum but act as though they carried the world on their shoulders. Sometimes they realize they are no better then others, and sometimes they run with their power and make sure everyone is aware that they are the best.

In my opinion no one should be entitled. No one deserves to be treated better than others. No one should act as though they are better than others. Be proud of what you do in life, recognize if you have gone above and beyond, but that does not mean you deserve anything more than others. Just because you have done what you are supposed to, or earned something more than others, does not make you better, and does not give the right to expect praise, privilege, or special treatment.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
