My life as a sloppy joe

I love to shop. Especially in housewares. There is something fantastic about a well decorated display. The colors, furniture and wall treatments can change your mood, making you feel comfortable, posh, urban, or even give you culture. Today I felt like going about town, I have no money so it was purely for fun. Among many others I browsed a store called Anthropologie, a shabby chic store filled with little details to make you feel like home. Something I find intriguing about a store is its employees. In this particular Anthropologie the employees were well dressed and sophisticated. I on the other hand, rolled out of bed, no make up, nails a bit trashy and hair unclean. I was wearing a plain dress and sandals, nothing fancy. As I perused I began to feel unwelcome. With everything I touched I'd get a sour look from an employee, making me feel as though I didn't belong. They, the employees of an Anthropologie chain store, made me feel as though I was not good enough, rich enough, pretty enough to be in the store that they merely worked in. This got me thinking, if I had money to buy something here, I would not, purely on the service I was NOT given. I flipped through a book about Audrey Hepburn, (one of the classiest of women) and the woman at the counter bellowed, "are you going to buy that?" while the pretty woman beside me read an entire novel. I realized that this was my biggest pet peeve. What gives one the right to think that they are better than another. Who gives someone the right to look down upon someone else. This sense of entitlement pisses me off to the core. There are few things in life that can tick me off and this was one of them. I was in the sequel to Pretty Woman. At first I felt inferior, then I realized how stupid I was for allowing this type of conduct. On a daily basis I allow the people and even friends around me to make me feel less important then they. I may not be the coolest, prettiest or well-groomed individual, but as cheesy as this sounds, I am Gods creation. He created us all and He created us all cool in our own ways. No one is better than another and we all have something amazing to offer. We all do ugly things and we all at some point will feel superior to someone else. We also all do pretty things and have the ability to make those around us feel special. I'm slowly but surely reading a book called Just Like Jesus by Max Lucado . I quote "Those in the circle of Christ had no doubt of his love; those in our circles should have no doubt about ours". I've decided from this day on to no longer accept this inferiority but to make others feel superior. Not because I am superior but because we are all inferior to God. And damn it we are in America, there is no cast system here!
