Starting Fires - a photo on Flickriver

Starting Fires

I’ve been noticing something lately that kind of disturbs me. I’ve noticed that there are a lot of people that seem to enjoy starting trouble with others where there should literally be no problems at all! I’ve noticed an almost school-child-like attitude where people complain about others or just spread negativity almost like it’s a game, and its one of the most unattractive things I’ve ever experienced. I’ve always seen things like this, but I guess with my own personal struggles and changes that are happening lately and with trying to figure out where I stand in the world, I’ve been noticing these things with more potency.

All I can say is that you should think before you speak and act. When you’re considering saying something negative about someone, think about how you’d feel if that comment was being directed at you. Also consider the fact that if you’re slandering people to others around you, it doesn’t make you look great to the people around you either; what will you go say about them once they’re gone? We live in a world where the success and failure of our existence is determined by the collective decisions of us all. Lets take hold of the opportunity to make this world a better environment, and treat everyone with grace and love rather than leaving scars.

And as a side note, the model for this image is the gorgeous Sarah Ann Loreth, and this message is the complete opposite of her… just want to make that clear because she is basically an angel! It was such a blast [almost] lighting her on fire... all in love of course!
