#tuningout

Gifts to make up for Unkind words said The rest of the year. Hugs from him Redeemable only On Christmas Eve. I play two songs And two songs only On occasion. The rest feel Like an obligation Of fake cheer. But a removal Results in silence Much needed. For a moment The soul feels It’s worth. For a moment The world is solemn And quiet. I will simply Fall on my knees And observe yonder. ~A.G. 12/25/18 (Entitled “Tuning Out...”)

Three television screens on with this divisive maniac speaking and I was surprised to see him speaking in the first place. I remember with past presidents, whenever they spoke, people would stop and listen and even talk aloud about what they just heard... But my catching Trump speaking and seeing a room full of young adults locked into their phones and laptops made me curious. I don't know if it's a good thing that they were completely tuned out and literally on other channels as if Trump didn't even exist with his divisive-rhetoric-filled speech, or if it was a bad thing that this generation is too consumed with other things to know how Trump is shaping the course and future of this nation. #strangedays #tuningout #tuningin #apathy is a......mf https://www.instagram.com/p/BxiS91Zggu0/?igshid=1w7fxrkvhdrvw

Part of embracing adulthood is learning to respect people’s opinions about you, listening to them and then throwing them out the window. In this world it’s almost become a necessity to just not give a damn what other people think and I’m learning that every day. I am stronger and stronger every day that I just realize I’m gonna be me no matter what anyone says. #tuningout #nomorenegativity #theessentialsoflife #adulthoodrocks #confidenceiskey🔑
