60's, 70's, or 80's?

Today, holding true to the idea that flowers will brighten up your life, I wore a bright red flowery dress from Free People, and sandals my mom gave me, claiming that they gave her the worst blisters of her life. I happen to love them but that's besides the point. The point is, that no matter what someone says about someone else, you, or something, you have to be able to form your own opinion about it. The shoes are quite irrelevant on the scale of things but its just something to think about. In society today, we often misjudge others based on what we hear from our friends. After all who doesn't like to hear juicy gossip. So while you may be reading this and shaking your head saying that you would never- it's kinda in our nature. Don't get me wrong, its not a good thing, but it exists. I know in high school we all hear those stories about the sluts, or the really hot guy and his girlfriend, or the kids who are "so mean". But if you take a minute to think about it, have you ever actually spoken to these people and had a real conversation with them? I mean I know I've decided that I didn't like someone based on what I'd heard, but I'm trying to overcome that flaw that we all have within us. So I guess the moral of this whole paragraph thing is don't forget that rumors will be rumors and whether they are about you or someone you barely know, don't listen and know what you know. If you know that a rumor about you is as far from the truth as we are from the moon, don't let it get to you. And if your friends tell you something about so-an-so, ask yourself if you have had any personal experience on the that, have they been mean to you and etc, and if you haven't: wipe it from your mind. I realize that the last sentence was super long, but still I think you got the message. xoxo Paloma.
