Some People Just Don't Know How To Move Forward

And some people do. I do find it interesting that you can run into someone after a long period of time, and you would think they'd have grown, learned something from life, but then after talking to them you realize they haven't. Some people go through something traumatic, whatever it may be, and they pull through it. They learn from their experience and become stronger, find their courage, find their voice. Others turn to means of numbing themselves from their experience, instead of learning from it they become weak, and feel the need to bring down everyone they can. They feel the need to lie, to hurt, to steal, to cheat, to blind themselves of the truth. They get so involved in their lies and their paranoia that they lose sight of the truth, of real life. I pity them. It's too bad they need to live in such a negative atmosphere that they miss out on all the good. It's too bad they could have had a second chance, but instead they throw insults, they think putting others down makes them feel better. You know what makes me feel better? Giving someone a compliment, giving them a hug, telling them that you love them, giving them the shirt of your back because you know they need it more than you. What else makes me feel good? STANDING UP FOR MYSELF. Saying what needs to be said. Nothing that comes out of my mouth will I regret because I know that I'm true to me, and true to the people I love. It makes me sad to see people lost, but makes me happy to see that I was not sucked in. And because I wasn't I'm so fortunate to have found myself again and found so much LOVE and ACCEPTANCE. I truly believe that because I've gotten out of that negativity that I've found love, true love, a love like I've never had before; friendships that have blossomed into a closeness I never thought I could have....a self confidence that I have been able to accomplish so much on my own. And I'm sure that it makes some people uncomfortable, makes them react in negative ways. But no matter what they say about me or try to do to me it won't work. I will prevail and good always wins over evil. Maybe someday you'll see the light, and if you don't fuck up too miserably, you'll even have a chance to redeem yourself. I see it unlikely at this point, but I wish you the best of luck.
