let noone else decide who you'll be! who wants to be normal anyway? to define self by others' standards is to default the heart & the truth. it takes more courage to live by what's right than to float with the standards of the average person around us. to blame society is to miss the point. it's no better to rebel against society than it is to conform. to be free means to think for oneself!! it also means having personal standards to live up to. & to sort the good from the bad by questioning ourselves, trusting that gut feeling, learning from mistakes, & listening to the wisdom of people we respect.. i guess you'd call it "open-minded with a filter." i expect to make a lot of mistakes. my life goal is not to be perfect, but to never give up the attempt to become better. the good & the bad news about me is the same: i'm always searching. it's not a choice, it's who i am. so if curiosity & questioning rub you the wrong way, you should probably avoid me. i'm not really judgmental, but i am challenging.. if it makes you feel any better, i'm probably harder on myself than on others.. unless someone hurts one of my children.. then i am not entirely rational. but then, love never is...
o...& it seems like a contradiction i guess, but i have to have fun!! whats the point if ya cant have fun??"whatever tomorrow brings i'll be there.. with open arms & open eyes.. yea"♥WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER..
survivors & optimists know this.. & when you doubt it... b/c you will doubt it when you're goin through stuff you go through.. it helps if you trust s.t. bigger than yourself.. b/c nobody can control everything all the time..& you have to have something that you love. that drives you. that you can be passionate about. that goes deep. beyond what anyone else does for you.. or to you.. it's your own. & lightens your heart. that you can think about, draw on, when you hit the rough spots, b/c we all hit rough spots..
