People in glass houses..

We all know the saying, but I think a lot of people sometimes forget to apply it to their lives.  Now I am in NO way saying that I have never and will never pass judgement on somebody.  It is human nature, we all do it to some degree.

Where the problem arises for me is when people become arrogant enough to think that they need to share their opinions on your life with you.  Do I have opinions about how others choose to live their lives??.. Sure!  As I'm sure others do about mine.  I however, do not feel as though my choices are right for everyone.  So I do not share those opinions with others.  And everybody can go about their business happily.  When you begin sharing your opinions with others on how you think they should live, you become an a-hole.

I have been trying over the last year or so to make myself a better person and try and change some of the negative things about myself.  And I feel like I am doing well, so far.  Trying at least!  I have calmed down a lot, learned to let the little things go, and how to say that I am sorry.  I also figured out just to mind my own business.  Everybody's lives are different, and you have no idea what really goes on in something that you aren't a part of.  So who am I to say what I would do?..  Nobody.  Me and Chris like to keep and chill and relaxed environment in our house.  (It's the Parrot Head way after all)  And part of that is just not worrying about other people.  Our family is our priority and that is the only thing we can control.  It is easier for him to ignore other peoples drama, as I think for the most part us gals just like to be nosy at time.  But, I have gotten better!

So my only advice to people is to calm down, and not worry about things that don't affect you.  Live your life how you want to, and I will do the same!

About the Howard's

Fort Campbell, Kentucky
My name is Allison Howard. I have been married to my best friend Chris for over 3 years now. And on April 1, 2008, our sweet little Kiley came along. She is our pride and joy and she is also a little crazy! We are an ARMY family. We were stationed at Fort Bragg, NC but it February 2010 we were sent to Fort Campbell, KY. Chris is currently in Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne and we miss him dearly. There is no real purpose to this blog. Just to let our friends and family keep up to date with what we are up to!
