The Simple Life

A lot of things are really starting to get on my nerves. Normally I wouldn’t broadcast my opinions. Because I personally feel that some people should keep their perspectives on things to themselves. BUT in my world there are no worries lol. So, I must say I HATE a flashy guy! I hate when a guy sincerely walks as if he doesn’t want to piss the ground off. Like they are totally self-absorbed. And not the healthy, “Yes I know what I want out of this life and I’m on my grind” healthy kind of cocky. But the “Umm do you see the Louis on my feet? Did you peep the logo on my clothes? Maybe I should show you the stacks in my wallet? Oh did you see the logo of the wallet too?” Like seriously? STOP the madness! It’s so juvenile and I’m not impressed. And shame on the females that literally drool over a guy just because of that. I have a special place in my heart for a humble guy. I’m not saying you can’t have all these things but sheesh could you be a little more humble about it? I’ll take a guy in some Maison Martin Margiela sneakers over Gucci shoes. I’ll take a Bottegga Veneta leather wallet over Louis Vuitton. Hell, I’ll take some dope Nike sneakers above it all! Just because you wear those high-end brands does not mean that you have STYLE. Anyone could throw any ole logo on, but how did you “swag it out?” BTW, I am starting to dislike this “swag” word. My, my you really do change, as you grow older. I remember when I use to look down at a guys feet and if he wasn’t wearing Jordan sneakers he was just not cool enough for me. This was YEARS ago. But I have fallen victim to the hype. Kay at 20 years old is OVER IT! I would have thought everyone else in my age group would be over it by now too. I guess not. I guess only I would prefer a Steve Urkle to a Stefan. I LOVE a dorky, corny dude. You know the kind that is just too cute when he’s not even trying to be. I love a corny from the heart line over “game.” All right I am not going to lie, a guy with a car is always a great asset because a car is VERY convenient. HOWEVER, it is not a necessity. We could make taking the train an adventure. You don’t have to buy me a plane ticket to Paris. I’m fine with a trip to the museum. You do not ALWAYS have to spend money to have a good time. I adore a movie and/or a game night. What ever happened to staying at home playing Scrabble then watching a movie that you circled on the TV Guide earlier on in the week? Now, don’t get me wrong I do enjoy going out just as much as everyone else. BUT it’s the person that your spending time with that matters. I heart a mentally stimulating conversation. I have the best time with friends when we are just chatting it up. I live for those moments. I praise a “just checking in on you” text from a friend. It’s the simple gesture that you thought of me, could sincerely make my day. Ahh the simplicity of my desires! Food for thought, pay attention to detail. The simple things add up, believe me! Enjoy your day! XOXXOXXOX
