yeah, im little. yeah, i wear my heart on my sleeve. yeah, my shell is thin. yeah, it makes me an easy target.
im not a weak person. im stronger than anyone can imagine, and thats why im open and comfortable with it. i dont have to have my guard up all the time because i know when the worst happens, i can handle it.
do NOT EVER try to take away my credibility. dont assume i am stupid, naive, or weak. i have read just as many books as you have read (if not more), ive seen things people only fear, AND ive lived a fucking lifetime in my twenty six years. im not afraid of people or situations. i can jump in the sea of people and not be scared or feel like i need protection. in my eyes, ive been through so much that people are just learning experiences, and specks in the big picture.
its so easy to talk shit behind people's backs and analyze people and every other retarded thing when you think someone is fragile, unintelligent, and inexperienced. but you cannot comment on other's decisions when you are too scared to even consider them.
my shrink has told me that everyone wants to pick on me, and find things wrong with me. but theres barely anything wrong with me at all. that im stronger than most people and am honest with my feelings and myself. but that i surround myself with people who treat me bad. she also says i have been through more than she can even imagine, and i am an incredibly strong person to still be happy, still be myself, and have a sense and pride to who i am. when she says these things, i cry. because no one ever says these things to me. no one ever appreciates my wisdom or credibility. and its sort of sad that ive let myself be with the kind of people who cant do that. the fact that i have had these people in my life and am still relentless, is proof enough that i am strong.
my point: dont underestimate anyone. especially someone who has been through more shit than everyone in the room combined.
aka i will NEVER allow myself to be the joke/punching bag of any group ever again.
