I’ve noticed about 80% of the people I encounter are nosy. A nosy person loves to snoop or interfere in the privacy of an individual. Basically it signifies that person gets into an individual’s business! Why is this? I know I can’t get into their brain, but I was just wondering how does one get satisfaction in knowing that someone is in a bad situation. To top it off they know that person is going through something, but still want to add insult to injury and bring it up (without concern) instead of wishing the person well or just seeing if the individual is alright.
You have a right to privacy, everyone from every walk of life has problems at times….and we have a right to just say, I prefer not tot talk at this time. I’m amazed at the questions people chose to ask. We can learn from others so channel the nosy energy and ask about something positive that is going on in the persons life…since the person is that interesting to you.
When becoming confident and comfortable with whom you are then you can easily deal with others who just want to bring you down or find the negative things that may have occurred in your life. Vice versa if you are the nosy individual as you become interested in bettering your own life you won’t have time to worry about others.
I’m building the courage to say to the next person that ask me a personal question (in my nice voice) HOW ABOUT NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, GET A LIFE, READ A BOOK.:)

Your words are wise beyond your years (from what I see)…Thanks for them, they reallly ring truth.
Yesterday I received my first negative comment on my blog. So when I come to your site & read your words you help put these things in perspective. They need to give you a column in a mag!
Have a great day.
LOVE the dress..those shoes are HAUTE!!!!!
What a pretty dress! You look so tropical!
I love your quote! I'll be using that!
G.A.L.!!!!! I love it… sometimes it takes being that way so folks can remember to R>E>S>P>E>C>T others privacy!!!! BTW, the dress is a nice gift… tag or no tag… you are ROCKIN' IT!!!!
Great dress, great message, lol, I need to start telling people to go read a book.
The dress is beautiful, I luv this look! Very chic!
I was told it's harder to mind someone else's business then your own. It's a sad reality, but unfortunately people find comfort in other's discomfort. You hit the nail right on the head –None of your business!
LOL. I think we are just in the era of oversharing – blogs, facebook, tabloids, Wendy Williams…people may not even realize they are being rude or overly intrusive sometimes because its become the "norm." Sad…but true!
Love the dress, the print reminds me of your last post, but the diamond back is a very nice detail!!! As always you look great!
Love this look, hair, shoes and mostly the confidence you exude in every shot and the message is very on point.
Hey (friend in my head) Stay Blessed and Focused…..Smooches
Glad to read this post. I have to deal with nosey people all the time. It's like a fulltime job. I look way younger than my age and have been mistaken to be my husband's daughter (yikes!). People are so nosey, you would not believe the questions they ask trying to figure out our ages. I just say "I'm in your age range" …sometimes I say "I'm sorry but I don't feel comfortable answering such personal questions." You would be surprised how many people look at me funny for not volunteering my personal business!! I NEVER ask people questions regarding how much, how long, how many, how old, etc. so, I expect people to know better than to ask me. It seems people are fascinated with the lives of others. I'm always puzzled b/c I'm thinking…how will knowing my business enrich your life? I don't know…some people aren't bothered by nosey people but I am. It's just so busybodyish..Lol.
Sorry for the long comment, and by the way…you look great, as usual.
Love this dress! What an amazing gift!
Love that quote and those shoes… !!! 🙂 I can safely say I am not nosey!!! 😛

CUTE LOOK… love the the dress!
Luving your dresses..u r bringing it!
Well, I'm gonna ask a personal/nosy question . . .
What size shoe do you wear? I pray that it's an 81/2 because when you get tired wearing a pair — toss them over to me!!
;~)
Seriously, I love your blog. Continue to stay positive because you're helping so many people with your posts.
I like this dress! Gives a tropical kinda vibe 🙂

You look wonderful!!! I love your quote!!! Might have to use that on a couple folks lol.
Your Dress Is Cute T!!! All I Can Say Is Live Your Life
Lovely dress and a wonderful post. People need to learn how to mind their business and face their own issues rather than ignore them and poke their noses into other's.
Please keep up the fab blog and stay beautiful both inside and out.
Girl, I thought it was just me.. Or the ones who ask, what do you do for a living?? Really!! I'm gonna tell them I sell drugs and see what they do then…!
Great message! You look beautiful!
i read your blog often. it is astonishing how timely your
messages are at times. i really needed to read the most recent.
simply put, "thank you". thank you for taking the time out of your day to share,
for your candor, courage, and overall positivity.
THANK YOU! YOU ARE APPRECIATED!
I've missed your blog, but am hear to say I totally agree with your post and it is sad. Keep your head up little sis. Keep your focus on your family and things above and leave all of the riff behind you… wondering what just happened.
Oh and you are working that dress!
This is my biggest peeve about people. I could go on, but I'll just say its refreshing when someone isnt trying to figure out the how and when and who and what w/in five seconds of meeting you. Unfortunately, these types are in the minority….
Im gonna dig up some shoes with that shade of leather to go with some darker greens, that is a great combo that reminds me of that safari inspired stuff chloe did awhile back. Looks real nice…
Omg T! That dress is BAD! Michael Jackson BAD! Love it! Who's BAD???!!!
My heart skips a beat every time you wear those gorgeous shoes!
Tanya,
Good for you, it's nobodies business. BTW, you look great
Each post is my favorite until the next one 🙂 This message is right on time for me also because I have dealt with this for years. I am going to use my "nice voice" next time. Luv the look!! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome, awesome advice. If someone chooses to share the details of his/her life with you, then consider yourself lucky/blessed. If he/she does not, then so be it. I dont understand myself who people feel entitled to know all the details of situations that do not involve them. =/
You look beautiful as always. Blessings xx
Love that dress!!!
I LOVE IT!
i heard the hell out of that!!!!
