Okay this is how it started. Somebody called my sister's cell phone. It sounded like my cousin or my aunt, but I couldn't really recognize the voice and I don't think they could recognize mine. They asked for Lachele and I said that she's still in the hospital. Call ended there with goodbyes. My dad asked who it was and I said that I didn't know. He goes "Don't you know how to take messages?! What if [someone important called?!]". He went on, but I told him that I wouldn't have done the same thing. I recognized the number from my sister's phone and know that it was definately not anybody important. Besides, if it were, the person would ask if they could leave a message. I told my dad that I recognized the number, and I didn't ask questions as I had a good feeling that it was definately nothing important. My dad got pissed and said I shouldn't answer the phone. He stormed out and I got back on the computer. Some odd minutes later he prints me up a letter basically telling me that I fuck up too much and that I should fix it as he would like to see me succeed, as he feels that it is his job. After he gave me the letter I wrote him a letter. I felt that we had to reach an understanding, because apparently, I was being misunderstood. I wasn't insulted. I quit being insulted after being labeled a "fuck up" by myself included. I wrote that I loved him, respect him, but he isn't doing any better...and without keeping that positive attitude he was encouraging ME to have, we won't make shit any better. We work as a team, and I'm working on doing what's best for Me, him, my sis, and her baby. It was longer than that. It was nothing negative though. I ended it with "I love you...take care[...yada yada...]"....some hours later my dad comes back. I believe he read it. He was insulted that I wrote him a letter telling him what to do. I told him to keep a positive attitude...lmao. He is mad because I told him to be positive and do what is best for him. What the fuck is that? I don't want to post the letter, but I was sooooo fucking on point. He can't argue. He didn't try. I don't think he will. He will just sit in the room and be insulted. Though I smile at the humor in it, that's not good shit. Fuck being insulted. Do what the fuck is best for you and keep a positive attitude. As the post from Jon about the girl losing her said...Attitude is everything. Stay cool and PEACE.
