Wow...tough day

Apr 07, 2004 01:00

So I have officially decided that constructive criticism sucks but it so important, especially when it comes from people that care about you. Three doses of it in one day is almost too much but each one had their own initial painful inpact on me but as things got talked out and explained they were all much easier to grasp. It definitely sucks having your faults be explained to you but without knowing them no improvement can be made. I guess it is just hard knowing you have hurt other people unintentionally that you care so much about. I have so much to think about and work on. I just hope that my friends can see an effort on my part, that is all I ask, and some understanding. My sister said "If friends are close enough to tell you your faults they should be there to help you get through them, if they are not, they aren't your friends." Wow, she is a GENIUS! Best quote of the day I think. So, hopefully these friends know that I took their criticism, thought about it, and am really going to make an effort in improving those parts of my attitude/personality. I really believe that I am a good person at heart and honestly think that I am just completely oblivious (bad quality, I know) to my negative effects on other people. I hate knowing that I hurt my friends. I think that hurts me more than their criticism. I LOVE people. I LOVE life. I absolutely LOVE being there for other people when they need it. I hope everyone can see that...that is the me I want them to see. Anyways, thank you girls for what was said today. It hurt but I am so glad it was said instead of keeping it inside until I pissed you guys off so much that I lose your friendship.

Boom~ You don't say much...you listen well...but when you do talk...you say great things that make so much sense. I love you.

Thanks also to Sean and Kyle...yes I know it sucks when girls cry but YOU CAME AT A REALLY BAD MOMENT...a few minutes, i mean hours, later and I would have been fine. Hahaha, thanks for listening and offering some mens advice to the table. Its nice to have that view. You guys are awesome.
