frustration

I try really hard to look on the bright side of things. Obviously, I get down sometimes...but then again, who doesn't? The one thing I can't find the bright side of , ever, is when I am completely, 100% looked over. And I wish I could be more specific, but I can't. And it happens every time. Every single time. I'm done. I'm done trying to fit in. Done stressing about it. Trying to please, be accepted and included. It's me or them and it will be me. I'm not going to lose myself wondering what I've done wrong. I'm done. My happiness is not contingent on their acceptance of me. I am of worth. I am a fun person. Heck, I would be my friend :) So here it is. My stand.

I am in control of my happiness, my fun and my joy.

  2. Wow...I basically felt that way all this weekend. And today when my new friend needed a better nursing cover I thought, man I wish I was Emily Malloy because then I could whip one up in no time...someday I will be amazing like that. Seriously! That was my exact thought process. I think your fun because you are and you alway seemed so happy. Hope you have a better day.

  4. WHEN YOU HAVE NOT FIT IN FOR 65YRS. THEN YOU WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO FEEL BAD ABOUT. I'VE DECIDED IT'S EVERYBODY ELSE THAT HAS THE PROBLEM. JUST SO MY FAMILY LET'S ME "FIT IN" THAT'S ALL I CARE ABOUT.EMILY, DO YOU LIKE ME? I LIKE YOU. YOU CAN FIT INTO MY WORLD ANYTIME.

  5. I agree with Grandma. I'm not fitting into the "mold" where I am either. Never really have. I try not to let it bug, but sometimes it really does get under your skin. Hang in there. Focus on family (gma's advice!).
