# 1.
I have been reading and not contributing for many
reasons..bickering..slandering..who's the best..what's the
best..etc.etc..etc.
The following is a 'story' about life..
Enjoy..it was sent to me from a very dear friend..just wanted to "SHARE" a
NON-BEE RELATED TOPIC.
USE YOUR DELETE BUTTON....:-)
 
 
 
LIFE ISN'T
************************************************************************
Life isn't about keeping score.
It's not about how many friends you have.
Or how accepted you are.
Not about if you have plans for this weekend or if you're alone.
It isn't about who you're dating, who you used to date, how many people
you've dated, or if you haven't been with anyone at all.
It isn't about whom you've kissed.
It's not about sex.
It isn't about who your family is or how much money they have.
Or what kind of car you drive.
Or where you are sent to school.
It's not about how beautiful or ugly you are.
Or what clothes you wear, what shoes you have on, or what kind of music
you listen to.
It's not about if your hair is blonde, red, black, or brown.
Or if your skin is too light or too dark.
Not about what grades you get, how smart you are, how smart everybody
else thinks you are, or how smart standardized tests say you are.
It's not about what clubs you're in or how good you are at "your" sport.
It's not about representing your whole being on a piece of paper and
seeing who will "accept the written you".
 
LIFE JUST ISN'T
 
But, life is about who you love and who you hurt.
It's about who you make happy or unhappy purposefully.
It's about keeping or betraying trust.
It's about friendship, used as a sanctity or a weapon.
It's about what you say and mean, maybe hurtful, maybe heartening.
About starting rumors and contributing to petty gossip.
It's about what judgments you pass and why.  And who your judgments are
spread to.
It's about who you've ignored with full control and intention.
It's about jealousy, fear, ignorance and revenge.
It's about carrying inner hate and love, letting it grow, and spreading it.
But most of all, it's about using your life to touch or poison other
people's hearts in such a way that could never occurred alone.
Only you choose the way those hearts are affected, and those choices are
what life's all about.
