Ms.Greentea was speaking about the singer Monica a couple of weeks ago,and referred to her as a "class act." She was referencing how Monica decided to handle her breakup with fiance Rocko. For those of you who dont know, after years of dating and becoming engaged Monica and Rocko split. It has been reported that the split was due to Rocko's unfaithful behavior.
Instead of blasting Rocko, and assassinating his character (like many of us would have done) Monica chose the "high road". She hasnt said a negative word about her former fiance. Whenever asked about the specifics of the breakup Monica's answer is that her and Rocko will do whatever is necessary to ensure her children are provided for.
This got me thinking, many times we dont take into consideration what the "classy way" of handeling a situation may be. It certainly isnt the yelling, fussing and cussing that we have all become accustomed to (myself included). This all goes back to my previous post about focusing on the positive. It's so important for us to THINK about our actions, before we carry them out. In the infamous words of Whitley Gilbert "Relax, Relate, Release!" Monica could have very well blasted Rocko for his "extracurricular activities", but instead she praised him. Said how much of a wonderful man and father he is. I think we can all take a lesson from Ms. Monica! BE A CLASS ACT ladies! Dont bash him...we all make decisions without thinking at times. DONT STAY IN THE SITUATION, but walk away from it with the lesson learned. Realizing that although one man couldnt stay true, Mr. Right is on his way in a matter of time. :)
P.S. MAKE SURE YOU PICK UP MONICA'S NEW CD :) Still Standing!
