A List of Questions to Ask Yourself.

Why do others thrive off of other individual’s sorrows?

Why do girls make fun of other girls for not wearing the newest brand or for not wearing make up?

Why does everyone now a days play victim?

Why do people belittle other’s? Are they jealous? Do you wish they were that person? Are they bored? What is it about them that makes them a target for your sorry life of bullying?

Why do other’s thrive off of others misfortunes?

Better yet, why does everyone comment or have something to say like they are some expert when things happen in someone’s life? Whether they know them or not?

Why are people so quick to judge others? Maybe the girl in the photo is dealing with more than you could ever imagine. Did you ever think of that?

Why do people still crave and demand more power between sexes and races and titles, etc.? Maybe take a look at how we all build the world we live in today.

Why are people so quick to point fingers?

And why do people hate those who risk their lives for us? Yet they are the first individuals to call for that help when they are in danger?

Why do we all take life for granted?

And why do we lose those that do not deserve to be taken from us young?

Why is money such an important thing? Yes, it can get us materialistic things, but those things spoil, get ruined, and cannot buy health or true happiness.

Why do we look up to actors, actresses, and professional athletes? There is nothing wrong with that, and a lot of those careers give back too many many things. But instead of a kid looking up to a figure because they are simply “famous” in the world’s eyes… why don’t parents talk about the solider over in another world fighting for their safety, freedom, and life. I don’t know, maybe it is just me, but those individuals are the definition of what a hero is.

Why do people beat down those who are trying to help us?

What ever happened to family fun nights that did not include technology and just board games?

Since when is being unhealthy a fad? And why are we in this world encouraging and embracing it?

Why does there have to be a “right” age to get married, have kids, go to college?

And why does everyone HAVE to go to college? To get more money? Yes, some jobs, but personally I would rather be happy then hate my job and do it just for pieces of meaningless paper.

If someone did wrong and did time for their crime or mistake in any capacity, why do they deserve to get punished and shamed and called out for the rest of their life? We all have made mistakes some bigger than others, yet we just didn’t get caught.

Why are people so quick to judge and act so perfect?

Maybe it is because they truly hate themselves, and would rather point fingers and play victim.

I do not know what is going on in this world. I believe that I was born in the wrong decade. But I try my very best to embrace my life and the world I now live in. I am not perfect by any means. But I know that I try my best to make sure other’s feel cared for, and important no matter what their situation. Just remember you never know what someone might be going through. So maybe do not be so quick to judge, comment, or act like you know everything when it comes to their life. Maybe start paying more attention to yourself, bettering you for YOU, and letting others go about their own lives. High school is over for the majority of us, so with that said leave the petty drama, rumors, complaints, nasty thoughts back in high school. And always remember to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. Try helping and giving back in any way that you are passionate about. You will make your positive difference in this world.

Stay True,

Montana Joleen

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
