Carpe Diem
That should be my new motto for everyday. You have to keep looking forward, not backwards. What's in the past is done, and nothing in it can be changed. Live every day as if it were your last. You never know, it might be.
That includes love. Love like you are invulnerable to pain. So what if you get hurt? Just dust yourself off, and try again. You're bound to hit the target sooner or later anyway. I don't regret having loved anybody that I ever did. I am proud of the caring and loving nature that I have. If others can't see that, then who cares what they think? I'm overweight, again, who cares? Who are "they" to decide what we should look like? I think it's despicable how the media and everyone else (those who are into "looks" ) look down on "us."
It's hard for people who "look different" in a society that demands perfection. It shouldn't be.
I thought for a long time that there was something wrong with me because others (now I'm talking self-conceited women) wouldn't care about me the same way I did for them mainly because of my looks. NO. There's something wrong with them, not me.
Anything I ever did in my past that I may be ashamed of, I'm over it. Mistakes and horrible things that happen to us, are what make us who we are.
I, for one, like who I've become; the warm caring person that I am. So if that is the result of my past, then I am glad that everything happened to me that did.
Don't ever feel "inferior" to those who put you down. Just feel pity for them. They just want justification for their own faults. They want to make themselves feel better, and the only way to do that is to make themselves feel superior to others.
The song you are listening to is "Breathe" or a.k.a. "I'm Desperate For You" by: Rebecca St. James and/or other various artists. You should listen to the whole song sometime, it's very inspirational.
So, "Seize the Day."
Make every moment count. Tell every person you love that you love them. Don't waste your time worrying about what has already happened or what may happen.
Don't worry about tomorrow, let tomorrow (the Lord) worry about tomorrow (Matthew 6:34).
Ok, so now that I have that done and over with, heh, let's see...what have I been up to lately?
Preparing for the upcoming Camp Reunion next weekend...still need to hear back from a couple, but all in all it's still a "go" and I'm pumped for it.
The Fair is next week, again, I'm syked about it.
I work tonight and tomorrow night 3rd shift (11pm. - 5am.) then after my week off next week I only work days. I'm happy to finally be going back to days.
Other than getting my books, I'm all set for Mott this fall. I even have a class with a friend of mine, I'm excited about that. Just this year left at Mott then off to CMU next year (hopefully, finances permitting).
Not really much else that I can think of. Tony's having a Lion's Pre-Season Football Game Party this saturday that I look forward to attending.
Well, since there's nothing else...
See ya later and don't forget:
