Thank you, Stuart Smiley

I can do this....... I have told myself this phrase throughout my life over a million times. Convincing myself of my own worth has been a recurrent theme in my life as the years have danced around me in a blur. The situation and scenery for my facade shifts but my role in this ridiculous play has remained constant. Until now.

No more will I peddle out my self respect to the first one to throw a price at me only to have a buyer. There will not be another time that I will soothe my soul against the blistering cold shoulder of someone too insecure to see what an incredible person lies within my skin.

Never again will I give so much of myself away that I am left standing in an expanse so wide my sight can not bridge the diameter, shivering as the winds of my former self rip through me.


'Cause I'm good enough, I'm smart enough and, doggone it, people like me! :-P


until next time.....
be kind,
me
