So I Said To Myself….

Dearest Self,

I realize that we are very into preservation right now, but there comes a time when you need to STOP acting like a detached bitch and be yourself. That shouldn’t be too difficult, should it? We are nice. We are fun! We are friendly and polite to everyone! (We are also very Dr. Seuss, apparently.) Let’s be a little less “too cool for school” and start showing our cards, painful though this may be. You can’t hide in the corner forever. Eventually we’ll have to step into life and do something real for a change. If we can be nice to the most ridiculous of acquaintances, we can be nice to those we actually care about. If you want to be happy, let’s change our ways. Unless of course you want to look back ten years from now and realize the poor outcome was entirely your fault. Your choice.

Be Brave!

Do you ever feel like you do and say the wrong thing in every important situation? And then chastise yourself for doing the exact thing you told yourself you wouldn’t (in this case, overreact and get pissed off)? And then do this over and over and over again over the course of a few months?
