About me:
I have a new outlook on life now and No matter how hard some "people" try, they will never crush my spirits. I am a stronger and better person than that. I will continue to fly no matter how hard they try and shoot me down. Other's can continue in their manipulative ways and live in self pity if they choose but I refuse to let their ignorance get to me anymore. I will no longer lower myself to their level ever again. This is "MY" life and I have the right to live it as I choose not the way others would like. "My Life" "My Business" "My Problem".......
I think everyone comes to a place in there lives where they know those who matter and those who don't. I know who my true friends are now, the ones who may not be around and up in the drama, but are there if I need them and will stand up in defense of me no matter who it offends. These are the people I never worry will smile up at me today and sling mud on my back tomorrow. They don't have to "fit" in anywhere or act shady to be accepted. I'm blessed in that respect. Because a lifetime friend is the kind of person who never changes their spots, they are exactly as they appear. What you see is what you get.
Unfortunately I have learned this the hard way, that even though you may sometimes feel like you've been stabbed in the back more times than you can count and you wanna scream at all the Hippocrates and fake people, all the lies on top of lies, eventually you come out on top, and the game doesn't hurt your feelings anymore.
I've finally figured out that some people just don't know how to "not" lie and be shady. They need some type of focus, doesn't matter if its just a bunch of made of talk or discussions , doesn't matter if their opinion of you is bad so they have to lie and continuously make up things so that their twisted stories sound good. These are all important issues to them when in reality, its just moments when you start to figure out that guilt and shame and the need to belong or be liked can turn even the well meaning ones into the exact type of person with no morals their trying so hard to convince others , you are. Those are all sad little people who's lives are boring and they have nothing better to look forward to than slammin you.
The best way to handle people like that. Smile and let them see how much there opinions really matter..which would be. NONE. Who cares what they think or how twisted there opinions are. As long as you are confident in you and know where you stand in this life and take responsibility for your own actions without making up excuses or blaming others for your own mistakes, than your own morals, character and relationships will stay strong and steady. You won't be the one always questioning if that person really loves you or if they really care about your feelings.
And if anyone who reads this questions weather or not this has anything to do with YOU. Then maybe it does, because those who wonder are most likely the ones with a conscience that's heavy with all the nasty words, lies and drama you've brought to the table

Ever notice the best things in life are rarely kept in plain site, rather always hidden away in dark narrow hard to reach corners, while the worse always seem to be on display? I've come to realize what I appreciate and find meaningful may not always appear as clear as I might hope, but instead hidden in its worthwhile veil we call life.
Wisdom is the sharing of wise experiences and knowledge, but a lot of it is common sense. The difference is how we apply this common sense - we all have the ability to keep going even when we face challenges in our lives - basically it comes down to your attitude. We can have a positive attitude towards life, or a negative attitude. We can focus on the good or we can focus on the bad. Keeping a positive mental attitude is one of the keys to success. THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS UP TO YOU!!!
Always remember that YOU hold the key to your own happiness. YOU are beautiful, unique, and precious in every way. Wake up each day in gratitude - be thankful for your health, your life - and look in the mirror and smile back at yourself. Know that the love YOU have to give is priceless and that YOU deserve the same kind of love in return. Remaining in an attitude of respect and love for yourself centers YOU. Like a compass points to its true north, your true north will be authentic life filled with love and fulfillment.
