A serie...You know....I think life is just this way. A series of failures and successes....ups and downs....rights and wrongs. As I get older and hopefully more mature, I am learning that PEOPLE don't walk in these shoes of mine. PEOPLE don't know me like God knows me. PEOPLE most often hide their true selves to portray this image of perfection that is merely a facade made from low self-esteem. PEOPLE can kiss my fat, rotund, squishy you know what! Embrace yourself when others criticize. If we don't...the age old cycle of self hatred and condemnation tries to creep back in and we say to hell with it all....what's the use anyway. I know the self talk. I heard it for 50+ years. Truth is...PEOPLE have no right. Only God has the right to tell me when I've messed up and HE does it with love and gentleness. So...PLLLLLLLTTTTT on PEOPLE. What do they truly know anyway?

You take the good with the bad and don't 'break things off' unless there's a real reason to. I appreciate that you let it all hang out. It's obvious that you try to be positive, but we can't be all happy, happy, joy, joy all the time. You're honest and heartfelt and that's the best!'Yellow Rose' Jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12496382898548158316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-26415421261806413432012-03-02T08:34:28.059-08:002012-03-02T08:34:28.059-08:00So glad to know you're human.....makes me feel...So glad to know you're human.....makes me feel quite normal.

I typed you this really long comment about how I so agree with you and I was trying to type a blog about this same thing earlier today. <br /><br />I like my people human. I like imperfection. I like knowing that I'm imperfect too and knowing that IT'S OKAY. And that everyone gets to take a different route to health. If it were a world full of people never making mistakes, wouldn't that be boring?! <br /><br />Anyway...

Which is why I took a bloggy break when things got tought here.. I fought the "everything must be sunny...all the time...or you're being negative" group as long as I could, posting my distresses along with my victories, but I guess it eventually got to me and I substituted spin for truth and quit blogging when I couldn't do it.<br /><br />In fact, I kind of alluded to that in my "I'm back" post this morning. Hmm, I guess I said it in my farewell post before the break, too. I distinctly remember saying that I wouldn't post since I couldn't be chipper.<br /><br />Yes. I could have written this post. It's a fine line, speaking truth. One ought not use it as an excuse to wallow in self-pity. And refusing to see possibilities isn't helpful. But, you know, sometimes the truth is hard to shine up and spin.<br /><br />I'm not sure a blog is helpful, tho, if it becomes one more place where I have to monitor what I say and put a good face on everything so that I'm acceptable. I mean, can't I be just me on an anonymous bit of cyberspace that no one is forced to read? <br /><br />I don't think one little spot is too much to ask.
