I was scrolling through my Twitter timeline, or tlist as everyone calls it, and saw a particular tweet by somebody, saying,'couldn't go to Demi Lovato's concert because of my parents refused to give me money. FML.'
This led me to think of how often the term 'FML'(Fuck My Life) is used.
I do know how much a concert ticket costs as I myself have been to many concerts. They are easily $100++ and sometimes may cost up to $300. That somebody's parents may not have the ability or felt that there was no need to spend so much money on a concert ticket.
I'm not saying that concert tickets are a waste of money, I'm just using it as an example.
FML shouldn't be used. Well, in my opinion at least.
I used to say that quite a bit in my newbie months of being on Twitter. It became a term than kind of ends the sentence, like 'LOL'. ( I too don't like using the term 'LOL')
Howover, I think that instead of saying that 'your life sucks', why don't we count the many blessings that God has oh so generously given to us?
I will very proudly say that I am a very blessed girl. I am blessed with loving parents (and a rather lively & lovable bunny), an amazing extended family, wonderful friends, and lastly the almighty living God. I may not be rich enough to own a million pairs of shoes (which I think is not necessary), and I may not have a house that has a backyard that stretches miles and miles into the sidewalks. But I am blessed to have a roof over my head, clothes to wear and shoes to keep my feet safe.
So instead of saying 'FML', why don't we say 'BBG' -- Blessed By God? :)
Let's all learn to take a moment out of our busy lives and count our blessings.
Ending off with a bible verse,
Ephesians 1:3 | Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ
