It's amazing what you learn about yourself, people, and life in general on a daily basis. Lately I feel like I've been learning so much about all three of these categories.
About myself, I've learned that I'm starting to tire of my willingness to sacrifice my own feelings in order to keep others happy. When it's really important, of course I will always sacrifice self for others, but there are many times when it's ok to stand up for myself and express what I'm feeling even if it might possibly upset someone else temporarily. I've learned that I don't function optimally without Jaime. I learned that I do not like smooth-talking people.
About others, I have learned to a greater extent the blissful mindset of the selfish bourgeoise. I've learned that there are more good people in this world than I had thought. I've learned how healing a good laugh with like-minded people can truly be.
About life, I've learned that love comes in small and large packages. I've learned that the distance of miles between friends only strengthens the bond. I've learned that the value of a good cry never diminishes even when you're grown up. I've learned how important it is to never lose sight of the power of hope and a positive spirit. I've learned that sometimes people just won't like me, and that's ok.
There's still so much I need to learn. I feel like I'm on the right path but somehow lost within the path itself...
