Commiting to Change

When I don't like something I change it. It's time to go a different direction. Wallowing doesn't help and keeps me from moving on. No more gossiping; it almost always hurts someone. If they wanted you to share it, they would've announced their secret to everyone in the first place. Next improvement, cease the swearing. Some times it's hard to avoid, but there's no need to curse every other word..like my habit now. Both of those habits have caused guilt for me, for years. I hate to hurt anyone's feelings, and I never want to make someone feel bad about who they are. It's not okay, and people forget how easy it is to break someones self confidence down.

Reason for blog today: Had a long serious conversation last night, and it really made me change my perspective. There's no real reason I should be as sad as I've been. Things could be MUCH, MUCH worse, I've always known that just becomes more apparent your life is less dreary than you believe when you get a little older. I'm extremely lucky I've been as blessed as I have. Parents still married, only lost my Grandpa's and a couple friends from school. I've never been in a real fight, besides my brother. Then again, my brother's always around when I need him. I can always come home. I've had my parents come get me when I get in situations I shouldn't be in, not everyone can say that. People need to have at least one person they're able to fully depend on. Those people are hard to find, but I know there's still good people like that.

I believe Karma is very real, and I've never done anything heinous to anyone, and do as much as possible for the people I think need it. Hopefully life will continue to stay positive and I'll able to be there for my friends whenever they need me.

  1. Those are good goals to have. As a rule, I try not to gossip, but I'm terrible at the no swearing bit, as you may or may not have noticed on sat. Lol. But I know how easy it is to break someone down, and nobody really deserves that.
    From the way it sounds, you are pretty lucky. My parents are no longer together, and I've only lost grandfathers myself, but I know either side of my family is there for me if I need them. Idk if I believe in karma per se, but I so think what goes around comes around, and i try to live by that, but evidently, things are taking their time gettin back around to me. Lol

    Well, that about covers it. Oh and I got ur fb msg, so be expecting txts from me from now on! :D I hope you have unlimited txting. Haha.

  2. I only heard you swear when you burned yourself. I did the same when I caught my arm on the oven lol.
    Nope nobody deserves that, the ones that usually say that stuff have been treated badly themselves..which is what confuses me, why do that to someone else?
    Well you sound pretty well off too :) It's nice to have family that cares, my Dad's side doesn't speak to me, besides my Grandma. My Aunt cut us out about 4 years ago, something to do with the past - which none of us but Dad was around for lol.
    Hahah yeah it can take your whole life to get what you actually deserve. I learned to stop doing dumb things that hurt others, I got what was coming to me already. Seems like it took awhile to turn around, every once and awhile I feel like I'm still being punished for hurting my ex. (No cheating, just up and left- so ya know).

    Lmao it's not a problem if you're a textaholic, I do have unlimited texting :) Plus I love getting texts, reminds me of getting mail - Immediately think of blues clues "It's maAAiilllllLLL time!!!" Hahaha.
