attempting to start a new

have you ever been at that point in your life where you are forced to stop all of your bad habits??
well i'm there or at least i think i am.
I'm trying to let go of the people in my life who have been causing me emotional and mental distress. I cannot keep dealing with them because i ALWAYS end up hurt or taken for grated. I've tried to change and become a better person, strengthen my faith in a higher power, in myself but in reality now i'm not the one who needs changing any more. I have admitted my faults and bottled up ever bit of criticism that i can. I've put my life on hold too long trying t be a good sister, daughter, friend, co-worker.
I want to empower good things in my life. When i got upset tonight i went outside and sat on the deck for a while to clear my head and have a cry. then i cam in just to clean and listen to angry music.
Despite my self pity i was looking at my niece and how happy and playful she was being, that alone became my little peace of heaven. At this point in her life i know that no matter what she loves me and doesn't judge me. I can make her happy just by holding her and that alone meant the world to me.
I still have to get rid of those people in my life... or at least just learn to ignore them for as long as i can.
