About me:
My name is Lauren Elizabeth Duncan. Lorie for short. I don't really know who I am and I don't know what I want.. But I like myself. No matter what anyone says or how they push me to change I will stay the same. I've spent too much time trying to fashion myself into what everyone else likes or what they want out of me. I am 19 years old and in the amount of time that I have been here, breathing in air as decent human being, I have learn many things from many people including myself.
One, you cannot change the past all you can do is put on foot in front of the other and try something new when you get knocked on your ass.
Two, sometimes you have to jump in head first. Life is full of little surprises and it's okay to stray from the mundane path from time to time. Test the waters if you think it's really worth your time in the long run.
Three, you can't make everyone happy or fix their problems. In the end people are stubborn and will not change there ways for anyone even themselves until not only they see you as worth it, but also seem themselves as worth it.
Four, when you change who you are for someone else the old you will come back.. If they don't love you for who you really are you both don't need each other.
Five, People LIE. You do it, they do it.. But dishonesty is a leech that sucks all your life away. You can never be happy or comfortable in your own skin if you are constantly trying to deceive everyone. It eats you away from the insides. If you've deceived someone the best policy is honesty.
Six, take time with your family because friends come and go. Family has known you for who you are and put up with you this far and they'll put up with you after that.
Seven, love without reason.. No matter how many people talk down to you, lie to you, spit in your fucking face.. Love those assholes anyway. In the end you'll feel better about yourself.
Eight, don't take pictures.. It's evidence..
I'm starting over.. I'm through with this place and I do not want to come back. Good riddance Cullman, AL I'm through with you and your bullshit.
