It's such a frustrating thing to be misunderstood. Being misunderstood doesn't matter much when it's people you don't care much what they think because their thoughts of you don't really affect your life directly. But it sucks when the ones you love, care for, and interact with more frequently misunderstand you. I'm kinda used to being misunderstood though. I don't know what it is about me. I am so surprised to hear sometimes people's perception of me. Everyday I hear something different. Just today, for example. Someone gave me a synopsis of their perception of a certain aspect of me and it was TOTALLY wrong. I just bust out laughing...it was hilarious to me. Because they were so serious. And when I told them they were wrong and gave them supporting evidence, they were totally shocked to know they were wrong. That's why I try hard to keep my mouth shut on people. I can't stand judgmental people...and sadly, some church-going folk have the tendency to be real hypocritical when it comes to judging folk. It makes me sick to my stomach. And it's not to say that what you observe in a person is always wrong...you could very well be correct, but to magnify it and challenge that knowledge of them without having the proper skill, humbleness, and tact to help them in that particular area...u'r observation is irrelevant. Knowing someone has an issue without the power to help them be delivered from it is just like having a gun with no bullets.
Anyhow...I have Kirk Franklin's new cd...i have mixed feelings about it. He has some weird songs on it. I like a few songs on it. Nice project overall, but I'm not really sure just how much "church" Kirk has in 'em. I want to hear him do a realllll "churchy" song for once. I guess that would be too much to ask from him. He certainly has the skill...i guess not the anointing to...(don't report me for saying that...juss my opinion). He didn't top his last project with this one...but it's not about projects. It's about glorifying God. In a nut shell, he did this..so...

Aint that the truth. I always seem to be nowhere in the neighborhood of what people perceive me to be. Whether that perception is considered good or bad. I don't know, I just try to be respectful even in my disagreeance. Anyways, people tend to change everyday. Next week it will be something new which they perceive about us. lol.
tell me about it!
lol
