Day 21-Something That Upsets You

There's a number of things that upset me, but I will keep this list narrowed down. I have been really trying to make an attempt to not let too much get me down (it seems to be working for the most part) so dwelling on the negative is never good.

Know-It-All's
I have been, on more than one occasion, known to be somewhat of a know-it-all. I don't feel that I'm obnoxious, but if it's something I have a lot of experience with and a lot of knowledge about it, I'm the first to give my opinions. The difference between me and those who irritate me, is the fact that I do not FORCE things on anyone. I do not need you to agree with me over anything. If you ask for my opinion or if you are believing in false information, I will be more than happy to lend my expertise. Other than that, I do not care what you do with my words. Take them or leave them. I CAN NOT stand people who feel they know EVERYTHING and who expect people to bow down and listen to them. That's not the way the world works.

Disrespect
This is a big one for me. I have always respected everyone, whether I always agreed with their decisions in life or not. I am a firm believer in telling people what I think and do not like people who back stab and say things behind peoples' backs. I have taken my fair share of disrespect and I don't tolerate it at all anymore. Not one bit.

Grammar Issues
I am a stickler for correct spelling and punctuation. It's a HUGE pet peeve of mine. I enjoy reading full and complete sentences with correct spelling. It makes for an easy time. I actually enjoy what I read as opposed to correcting things as I go and becoming distracted by it.

Loss of Life
Whether it's a loss from age or murder, it's tragic. Life is such a joy and for it to be taken from someone is awful. I believe even those who are aging and no longer comfortable have so much to live for. I know death is inevitable, but it would be wonderful to stop time for a little while.

Animal Cruelty
Treats animals as you would family. Do I believe in animals eating at the dinner table me? No. I do believe in respecting an animal just as you would a person. They can't defend themselves like we can. Animals have one of the most innocent souls (next to infants and children) and it should be kept that way.


Those are my top things that upset me. As I said, I could go on...But there's no point in getting upset. :)
