Learning is constant. Will I think it totally should be. Which should always be growing. And learning. Right now I am learning to deal with people. Well to be more specific learning to deal with people who do not like me. For one reason or another really are not a fan of little old me. This normally doesn't bother me. At all. Which I am normally just fine with. I am understanding. I get it. Some people we just click with. Others we simply don't. That doesn't make me a bad person or them a bad person it simply makes us different people. Which again is normally fine. But sometimes those people that you don't like... well you can't escape. Get away from. stuck in your life whether you like it or not. You know how it is. So here is part one. Things you should know before you decide you hate. And perhaps it will give you a reason not to hate me. Maybe even a glimpse of how I am. And why I am how I am.
When I was younger I was a people pleaser. To the point where I didn't know who I was. There was the real me then the washed down and diluted version of me. A me that I didn't even like let alone recognize. One day or perhaps one week I decided to change this I decided to let me be me. For my yes to mean yes and for my no's to mean it. In making this decision I grew in a way that I didnt expect. I started being on my side. I started believing in myself and my rights as an individual. In becoming more unapologetic I become more understanding. People didn't have to agree with me for my opinions to be my own. They didn't even have to agree with me. I was totally okay with that. Unlike the younger version of myself that was convinced that I was right and everyone else should totally agree with me. So while you hate me.. you should appreciate the fact that my face is my face. The only face I have. Definitely not two faces here.
