Ode to Me
I read another bloggers entry where they wrote a letter to themselves...say what? Yes I said they wrote a letter to themselves, a letter where the grown up them wrote a letter to the 20 year them 15 years ago. Lost? Oh well anyways, I've decided I don't want to wait 15 years to tell my 21 year old self all the things that I know but refuse to accept, recognize, and change so at the sake of sounding a tad bit insane here is a letter I wrote to myself, I've read it feel free to do the same.
Clueless, you go girl! The little scrappy tomboy athlete from the back desert land of the inland empire has cocooned and blossomed into a vivacious, lively, beautiful young college student only months away from completing what almost no one in your family has. Koodoos to you hun. You made it, here you are, now what are you going to do with it.
Newsflash...you don't have it all, you don't know it all, and although this may come as a startling revelation your opinion in most cases don't matter because at the end of the day they are just that...YOUR OWN opinion.
You are not as strong as you think. And no matter how much you try to deny it, you need help, you need support, you need love and companionship. No amount of money, no accomplishments, degrees, friends or achievements will replace the space in your heart that God has made just fit for love. You have built walls around your heart for whatever reason and it is time to tear them down and let yourself be free.
Let go of your ego and stop letting your pride get in the way. Open your mind and learn to accept people for who they are. Your not perfect and you can't expect anyone else to be something your not. Yeah, your grown but you have so much more growing up to do. Live like there's no tomorrow and love like you've never been hurt.
This is your wake up call because clearly you are clueless and it is time that you get a clue.
