I Raise The Bar!

I know we need our mistakes to learn and grow but I really wish I'd the true power to know the future.

That superhuman ability would allow me to avoid bad people and situations that weren't healthy or beneficial. Has anyone else ever looked inside they're own mental crystal ball and seen that a certain course of action would lead to nothing but pain, drama and everything not good...But still take that route?

Often I've found that you can figure out a bad situations end as it begins. Unfortunately denial, drugs, fear, other people, our own bad habits, emotions/situations and pasts make it hard to avoid the negative outcome.

Recently I've erred in getting close to a couple/few people who are greedy, immoral, unkind and have a preferance for self destructive tendencies.

I see my mistakes and have learned some valuable lessons that will aid me in who to call a friend or lover. From now on, those that I honor with such titles must return that back equally.

It's time I raise the quality of people I surround myself with.

Those that lie, steal, cheat or show a lack of ethics and morality have no place beside me or in my world.

Today, I raise the bar!

Congratulation must be extended to hometown hero Barry Bonds on his breaking the home run record held so long by the legendary Hank Aaron.

Seven hundred and fifty seven home runs couldn't have been easy..Even if he did cheat by using steroids.
