Revelations of my mid-20s

1) I LOVE People. I enjoy their company, getting to meet them, and the general social process. Sometimes, this can be a bad thing. Sometimes, I can get hurt.

2) I laugh loudly and often, and I don’t know how to be another way

3) I care. I want to make a difference, and I take action to make this want a reality.

4) I don’t like mean people or people who rub it in when you’re wrong and have apologized.

5) I can’t stand manipulative people. Ugh!

6) Drama is inevitable. Whether you’re 12, 16, 18, 22, 26 or 40. I’m doing the best I know how, and it’s clearly not good enough for some people. I just wish they’d scrutinize themselves as much as they scrutinize me.

7) Selfishness is perhaps the thing that bothers me the most. It’s so against the way life was intended to be.

It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to feel alone and abandoned. It’s okay to be insecure. It’s okay to be angry. It’s NOT okay to use these things as a crutch of safety and avoid change when change is clearly needed.

9) I have a constant yearning to be better. I’m very self-aware.

10) I’m not good at first impressions, and that sucks.
