Seems like I got this rejection thing down!

How about you others? Do you submit things that you feel are coming from your experience and really feel that others may like and enjoy? Are you wanting to share your life experiences with anyone that may benefit, only to find it never gets on the page?

My experiences have taught me to give people a chance. My experiences have taught me to listen with both ears and talk less. My life has taught me to not give a damn about anyone displaying rudeness and a quick reaction to things they really do not yet understand.

Rejection is a funny thing really. To me, it is saying that maybe I don't measure up, maybe I just don't have what it takes to be the one. Maybe I had a thought I could do something, I tried, and nope, I was rejected. Anyone getting that slam sure knows what that's like!

There are many areas in life a person such as myself can be rejected. The one most everyone might agree with and have experienced, is relationships. Another one is in the workplace. Then there is the one I am speaking of today, submitting a work about a life experience that...gee whiz...just doesn't quite cut it! I guess that it was not explosive enough, or grand, or another way of looking at this, it was just not good enough. It is like someone saying, ‘we are sorry, your experience was not good enough to make the cut.'

So as I toil on trying to create a life experience, or even an opinion that's good enough, I, of course, will wait for the rejection notice. I really didn't think there were levels of experiences. The person having the experiences, when they are knee deep in them, tends to believe that some of them could be life changing.

The person deciding on whether or not this ‘experience' qualifies, may not have any personal dealings with the type of experience submitted. They may not have the compassionate ear to hear the message. They may not believe it is worthy of page space.

My answer to that is: Let us see what the general readership thinks. After all, they are our audience, they are our cheerleaders for everyone submitting some writing on life happenings.
