Too fat. Too thin. Too old. Too young. Too quiet. Too loud. Too shy. Too forward. Too fast. Too slow. Too clever. Too stupid. Too Northern. Too Southern.
People have made me feel all of these today. People can be mean. People can be cruel.
Shapely. Mature. Sociable. Funny. Needed. Clever. Well-suited.
People have made me feel all of these today. People can be kind. People can be nice.
I used to watch films, shows, musicians, artists, people in my classes, my workplace and WANT to be them. I would try and change my looks and my tastes to be someone else. Until I sat myself down and had a good chat. It may have taken a while and alot of chocolate digestives, but when I stopped fighting and let myself be me, I was happier than I could have been as anyone else.
Sometimes I am messy. Sometimes I am lazy. Sometimes I am greedy. Sometimes I am clumsy. And sometimes I try and write a meaningful blog and realise writing about wash cycles is definatly more my style. Sometimes you don't know until you try.
