IT is what IT is…

Does that statement aggravate you too? I mean, the statement can be both positive and negative depending on the circumstance. However comma no matter how the statement is used, the basic translation is still… WHO DAFUQ CARES?!?! LET’S JUST MOVE ON!

Let’s say you are having a deep discussion (argument) with a co-worker, and to end the convo, and avoid being proven wrong, one of you says ‘eh, it is what it is!’ Well tell me Becky, EXACTLY what dafuq IS IT’? Isn’t that what we are trying to figure out? Isn’t that why we are discussing the details and options? You mean after 4hrs of debating, all you can come up with is ‘It is what it is’…? Are we just going to ignore that fact that we are back to where we started- with no resolution??? DO YOU EVEN CARE ABOUT THE CIRCLE WE JUST TALKED IN??? Arrrrgggghhhhhh (Okay, so I just got aggravated over a facetious conversation. LOL)

Now, lets look at a positive perspective of the statement. Over the last 10months, I have had numerous opportunities to say this very statement to My Own Self! It has become somewhat of an encouragement to my psyche, when I start to doubt this Life Journey that I am on. When I moved to the Gulf Coast, I left family, friends and my comfort zone to follow a ‘dream job’. It was not long before I realized that this was not My Dream that I was following, but instead it was the clouded visions of others. Others who saw My Abilities/Strengths/Passions/Drive and wanted to use those traits for their own prosperity. After a while, as I began to see the truth, I reminded myself that, ‘Camille, it is what it is’! In other words, yes I saw ‘it’, named ‘it’ and realized that ‘it’ no longer served a purpose in My Life Journey. This calmed my soul and gave me the motivation to TAKE CARE OF MY SELF, AND MOVE FORWARD!

So while the statement can be aggravating, it can also be used as a motivation to push you away from the negative and into the positive. 

IT actually IS, WHAT IT IS supposed to be!
