New Creation

My mom has always joked that back when she was younger, she aspired to be a "lady hermit" (It is true I saw it in her high school yearbook). There are some days I see her point (although I would want to be one with my husband, our cats and my closest friends). Today is one of those days with two groups of people that just make me scratch my head and wonder.

The first group are the ones that have to be the center of attention. Everything is about them and typically it is nothing but drama sprinkled with a "woe is me attitude". They can be in group full of people going through the same thing and act as if it is only them that is suffering - that they are alone in the world (even though there maybe dozens of others who have it worse). It is as if they are the Queen and we must bow at their throne.

The second group is the ones that are not straight with you. They lie to make themselves either look good or to make themselves feel better. All they do is delay the inevitable and then pretend that it was the hardest thing for them to do. You give them a chance to do what you know they want to do and the act like they don't know what they are talking about. I cannot trust a person like that.
