Hey; it's me again! Sorry for the week of silence. It's just been a busy time in my life. From birthday parties to a movie night with a friend; it's been nonstop excitement. Okay so maybe that's a bit of a boldface lie. I did go to a birthday party for my nephew and I did have a movie night with my best friend. It's just that I felt so out of place at the birthday party and the movie was a scary movie and we watched it, talked, them I went home.
I don't know why but I feel out of place at any family function I go to. I feel so out of sync with my family. It's as if I don't even belong there. We have completely different views on the world and of ways to spend our time. Something occurred to me today.
Maybe it isn't them. Maybe it's all in my head. Maybe I have been staying off to myself so long because I feel that no one could ever accept me for me. But today I am quiting that. I'm done separating myself from my loved ones because I feel inadequate.
I am a part of my family. I'm done letting my own feelings of inadequacy get in my way of finding happiness.
This begins with a change in me. A few changes actually.
It's time to clean up my act:
I have to clean my room. And quit letting the stuff rule my life. I refuse to become a hoarder.
I have to be a better friend, daughter, and family member:
*Spend more time with friends, my parents, and be more outgoing when it comes to family functions I attend.
I have to get back to the me that makes me happy:
Quit letting everyone else decide what is best for me.
Put my foot down when I don't agree with something.
Start drawing again.
Start reading again.
Have fun organizing things.
Okay so you get the point. I have to change the way that I have been acting in order to find the happiness in life that I have been craving for so long.
This was my unexpected realization of the day. I hope you found it interesting and possibly inspiring as I found it.
This is D. telling you to always
Expect the Unexpected
