I don’t know what it is but it seems
people are just getting meaner as they get older. Maybe the world makes them
bitter or angry or just less hopeful. But I refuse to be that person. Hell I
will not succumb to the pressures of the world. No matter how bad a day I have
I will always enter my home with a smile. No matter how jaded I feel I will
always let people ahead of me in traffic. And no matter how irritable I am I
will try my best to not vent on the people that matter.
Something I really need to practice is
standing up for myself. I don’t do that enuf with the people that I luv. Just
bcoz you love someone doesn’t mean they can bulldoze all over you. I hate to
argue with my people but at the same time I am not a push over and I will not
let someone’s perception of me impact my self-confidence. I have worked too
hard in life to be considered a 30 something divorced women that wilted away.
The choices I made are the ones I live
with. I know in my mind and heart they were the best choices at the time for
me. I will bear the repercussions happily because that’s how you learn. If you
love me support me – don’t question everything I do and DO NOT put me down. I
am a fighter and I am proud of it, but I am also human and words hurt. Not
reacting or ignoring things being said isn’t a sign of me not caring, it
indicates my tolerance.
I want to work towards being as kind
and nice and compassionate as I can be. Pre-conceived notions or assumptions
may exist for whatever reason. But they don’t define me. How I am today, and
how I handle things today and the person I have grown to be and am still growing
to be does.
I know I am work in progress, there is
no denying that. But I also know I am a good person who’s always there for
people, never shys away from fighting for the people that matter, always stands
up for the right, sees the good in people and always gives everyone the benefit
of doubt, and NEVER thinks twice before doing things for the people I love.
