As you all know by my last post "Women of Color" that I did receive a email, a person with a very bad attitude. So today I want to write on the subject of Attitude. It makes me mad or more irritated I guess when I come across people who have a bad attitude, but in this case it was through the email. I wasn't expecting, I was not in the wrong, I was just minding my own business. Why do we as humans have a bad attitude? I think mostly because it was the way they were brought up in life, or they are having a bad day, Being negative also triggers it and goes hand and hand with it in my personal opinion. I know most people I come across have a good attitude and they all try to be happy and positive. At the same time there are people who have it made in life, don't have to worry about anything, but why do these people have a bad attitude, it is because they they were brought up. I am not trying to blame there parents or whoever raised them. You know the saying if you are a Alcoholic then more then likely you will, is it the same with bad attitude. I you were raised with it day in and day out I guess it can wear off on you, but I am one to beg to differ on that. Especially when you are adult. we are humans and we know from right and wrong, it just we have a attitude I don't care and it is my life and if I want a bad attitude then that is my choosing and no one else, they are right we are not here to change any person attitude. I for one will tell someone if I think they are having a bad attitude, and if it is directed to me, I think it is my choosing to tell that person that especially when it is in my space and what I mean space, you know the area where someone is talking to you way to close for me if they are coping a attitude within 3 feet of me then that is way to close and is the area that triggers my brain to stand up and speak how you feel.
So you are thinking people with attitude the hard case ones, the ones who have it 24/7 all year long that it can be changed. The thing once a Alcoholic always a Alcoholic is not true in moods, I class a bad attitude as a mood swing and can be avoided and changed if the person who is feeling this way, other then having this mood, think of something happy, something positive it only takes a few second and stop and think. "I am having a tude today, who do I change it before it gets bad, easy done think of love, peace, happiness, and compassion of others this always helps me not to be in a bad attitude or any bad mood. This might not work for everybody, but use something that will turn it into something good and you be surprised how good your bad attitude will change.
Peace, Love, Happiness and Compassion

right on jale! you are absolutly correct in how to change ones attitude, as only the person with the "tude" can hange it. Alas I am afraid that people deeply involved with a tude tend to blame it on others. shame cuz its with in their own power like you said. Blessed Be
OK that is great but practice what you preach because your attitude toward me has really changed. You are taking things out on me that should not be, things I have no control over and things that I can't change. I tried to be there for you as much as I could, but you want my world to revolve around you totally and that can be but until I get my responsibilities straightened you need to try to pretend to understand at least a little bit. I can't just let my kids down or stop with my schedule to cater to what you want especially when you don't tell me what that is. Yes, my attitude with you today is irrate because you won't talk to me and you won't try to understand what I am going through too. You mean a lot to me and I am willing to do what I can to help out when I can but I do have 5 kids and 4 grandkids that I have to be there for too. You know what my life is like and how chaotic it can be, I have no time to do the things that interest me whatsoever and I am trying.
