I feel too many people are soft today.
We accept failure almost as equally as a success.
They try to make all the kids feel like winners and have no one feel the grief of loss.
If you never taste defeat, how can you truly taste victory?
I just wonder why we are accepting stuff like this and allowing people to say it's ok to be crap and mediocre.
The way kids all get trophies. The way garbage musicians are even called musicians?
Movies that just suck winning awards.
Mumble rap?
I'm confused.
The highest paid YouTuber last year was a 7-year-old reviewing toys. (Love this kid though, he is a legend. Little jealous.)
Everything seems backward.
It's almost as if the dumber I act and more drama I acquire in my life, I get treated like a winner.
Maybe I'm just being cynical today but I just constantly see stupidity surround me and it is glorified.
Maybe I'm the dumb one?
Why is it this way?
