Fallen 90's Sitcoms Vs Modern Family Values

Sometimes I really wonder what has transpired that made the world go mad.
People are so butt backwards from everything I thought I  knew.

First off, say whatever you want to say to me, but I believe 90’s television helped to
shape the good in people.

Full House, Saved By the Bell, Family Matters, etc, you knew 22 minutes in the

music would start to play and the lesson was coming.

It certainly was not a perfect world as they “tried” to cover serious topics, but
the level of morality was still there!

Not like today, where we thrive on scandal, lies, secrets, surprises,
and pretty little liar type fanfare, etc. We need to be shocked to be
entertained. This impressions come at us in every direction.

It is like we make the asshole, the hero.
We praise "Charlie Sheen" like behavior because

we think it is cool that he gets away with being a douche.

Does anyone else see what is wrong with this picture???

 I refer to it affectionately as Scott Disick Disorder…

and I only use it affectionately because it tickles me pink that he is the thorn in

the Kardashian side and not budging, but that is another rant all together.

How is selfishness, greed, and cockiness attributes to want to emulate?

 I am at a loss of flabbergastation

 ( I am aware that is not a real word but I figure, everyone else makes up their own rules, so will I)!

Everyone believes they are entitled.
No one knows how to handle criticism or reality in its simplest of terms.

All day I read Facebook posts of people boasting about

how they are on the work grind, thanking themselves for their baller status, convincing themselves that they have earned this right as a “ hustling club promoter ” to do so
and belittle the less fortunate.

Come on now, I am not bad mouthing those that make a living that way, because all work is hard work, And in 2013, people do what they need to do what they need to do to build a life…

but can we all show a little compassion and be humble about

 the hard work we put in that allows us to achieve whatever definition of success we have.

Success…which again is another relative term thrown around-

Guys posting pictures of their high-end lux items, or their weekly meal plan of grilled chicken /veggies…???
WE GET IT! !!!

You can buy expensive things and really care about having abs…Priorities at its finest.
Will you father my children now?  OR at the very least read a book!
THANKS.

Again(NOT HATING), I praise people who have discipline, goals, and standards…

but that is not a case of those conditions.

 This is, “My ego is huge! I am the best! I work the hardest! I am so hot!

God spent more time creating me! And people should be so lucky to know me...Yada, Yada, Yada!”

 Well…

Someone needs to tell them, they are a YAMBAG.
The focus goes no deeper than the surface articifical tan on their skin.
They do not share posts or world issues, causes, nor do they care to educate themselves on anything
that goes beyond their own bubble.
But they sure do know a lot about presidential elections...( Imagine my eyes rolling so far to the back of my head in sarcasm right now, I almost was victim to a self enduced seizure)

Get off it, I work hard, I’m no mutant, but

you don’t see me with a surprised look on my face in front of a web cam (Girls ain’t getting off that easy lol).

I remember growing up although my parents instilled a tremendous amount of esteem and confidence, they always made me aware that I wasn’t the best. There is always someone better and that shouldn’t be a bad thing. It is NOT a put down. It is the truth which is why I don’t experience dramatic disappointment when someone else is “winning”. They made me understand a very distinct difference between right and wrong.
They raised me with the very simple credo of "Treat others as you would like to be treated".
Sounds simple, not in 2013.
I developed the ability to put myself entirely in someone else's perspective. Be thankful for the blessings my way and knowing life can change is seconds and how to carry my faith and beliefs in my heart.

Point is, when did we lose are values and our true connection with each other? Was it technology? Was it Social Media? Was it TV and infatuation of characters and story rather than real people? What made us unable to live simply? To take care of each other. I am legit jealous of my parents who grew up with nothing vs. our world who has unlimited access.

I rack my brain about this everyday wondering why I feel alone, can’t fit in, or relate. Empathy has just been removed. I don’t know if people need to hit a low point in order to acknowledge what a spec they really are- But that is a sad realization to face.

 I know what it is like to fail, or loose things, and I also understand that rising up was not a solo job.

It was NOT just me, I am NOT that wonderful, and I am NOT the best out there at what I do.

My family, my friends, my faith, my passion, my values, those are the things that support me as I struggle and not thrive. I choose to make those things my life investments as I move forward because that is the only reality I know. And if I am going to brag about something, it is exactly that!

I want to connect and help people understand that even when I’m doing well,

 I still live in constant fear and anxiousness.

 I want people to know that sometimes you bust your ass and it still does not go in your favor, and it does not mean that because you have not acquired certain things that you are a failure OR that you are not as hard of a worker as JCiroq20 spinning the 1’s and 2’s, that has a nice body, drives a Beamer, and is 34 years old with a ridiculous haircut. You are actually better. You make yourself better the moment you understand where your

strength, values, and priorities are.
I'm not even telling you to not watch the crap that entertains us- But please for the love of God
be smart enough for it to influence and infiltrate you.
I watched Flavor of Love at some point of my life, you do not see me going after Vikings or Giant Clock Makers...
In it's easiest form:

In the 90’s a John Cryer type was the character to hold on a pedestal, not Charlie Sheen.
