It is what it is....


This is my least favorite phrase because I know someone who overused it and used it incorrectly. I feel that this phrase should only be used when it really is an unchangeable situation. If it is something that can be changed and should be changed, then we shouldn't just shrug our shoulders and say basically, "oh well!" Say, for example, that your husband is abusing you...this is not the time to say...

It is what it is....

Or for example, when you are failing a class because you aren't doing your homework. This is not a time to say...

It is what it is....

When it is raining, this is, indeed, a time to say...

It is what it is...

Because, in fact, you can not change the situation.

I'm just tired of people shrugging their shoulders at things that should be changed.

Peace Out,
Mom
