The hate of Greatness.... Kind of a strong subject but fitting in today's society.  No matter what the accomplishments, the struggle or whatever hardships it took for that person to accomplish there goal, it will always be at least one that will not appreciate the effort and sacrifice or have something negative to say.  Why is that???  It definitely occurs more in the sports era...which is to be expected.  Lets take Lebron James......4 times MVP, champion, has won numerous awards etc.  Everyone knows what route he took as far as joining the Miami Heat and most don't agree with that.  Joining superstars to help you accomplish your goal of winning a championship is just not accepted...lol.   But what about Lebron's struggle?? Being raised by a single mother, moving from place to place and still having the mindset to be the best basketball player at every level.  Its terrible that we focus on what the person is not doing and not see the obstacles that the person had to overcome.  I don't want to focus on Lebron, the hate of greatness is bigger than Lebron.  We as society hate on kids accomplishments, killing their dreams before they even start.  I actually witnessed someone hating on a child who was participating in the special Olympics Event.  We as people have got to start uplifting and encouraging each other.  Don't get me wrong I hate losing.  Shyt when the Denver Broncos lose I don't even go to work...lol but to not recognize what a person had to overcome and to knock someone down as they are climbing up the ranks is just wrong and a self check is needed if that is happening.

" He who says he can and he who says he cant are both usually right "
