take things so seriously. They make mountians out of mole hills. I don't get it. They get all worked up over minor issues, for instance, what's that neighbor up to? Who cares? It's nobody's business except the neighbor's. People need to mind their own business and they'll definitely be healthier for it. Instead of thriving on things that don't concern them they should focus on their own lives and work on a more positive attitude.
What do you think????

PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK THAT THERE WAS A REWARD FOR BEING BUSYBODY.
PEOPLE SEEM TO WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT "YOU" THEN "ME"

Well to answer this question, i have to tell you a little story first :))
One of our neighbours were making a fence around their house, and obviously it isnt done in a day, but it must have taken some time to finish it. Anyway, one day my mom asks me, what I think of that fence, if I like it and such. And i said:
"Oh, they have a new fence???" My mom said: "Yes for a onth now." :))))))))))))
See I really dont give a damn about other people business heheh

I don't get to know the latest gossip until its all done and over with, but I do get it , when you say why don't people mind their own business. May be its their nature to enjoy, recently I read somewhere that people who secretly admire other person's life style and choices and do not have courage to do so often make fun of it. And I couldn't agree less, its their own lack of security that makes them such, but then why should you and I bother lets live our own lives, right!

I think you worry too much about what others are thinking. lol! I'm just kidding. That's actually a good question and just like you I don't mind other people's business. I already have too much worries about my own affairs that I don't have time to worry about other people's concerns. On the second thought, I don't really worry too much because I know God is in control and I just leave everything to Him. In that way, I don't have to worry.

Exactly, g3n3j0rd. I don't have the patience to worry about what other people are doing. But, on the other hand, if I see someone committing a crime, I might tend to take a bit more notice and do something about it.
Thanks for your response.

If that's the case, i.e., seeing crime being committed, I would definitely do something about it. I'll probably call the police and report the incident. Also, in emergency cases wherein people would be needing my help, I would intervene and be concerned. But when it comes to meddling in other people's lives, I'll let them be.
