Within the past couple of months the words "I" and "me" have become particularly important as I take the first steps into becoming my very own person, a person who makes their own decisions without second guessing and a person who in fact thinks for themselves, on their very own two feet.
This blog comes at a time of mixed emotions. I have just withdrawn myself out of my French oral exam (a retake)... Something which I haven't wanted to do since it was suggested. I went with my teachers though thinking that they had my best interest at heart... But I've learnt that your own decisions should never be dependent on others. You have to be selfish at times, even if it means disappointing and hurting people. I do not see the point in putting yourself through stressful situations when there's no need. My best friend just sent me a text including these lyrics...
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
This made me think... think that I am actually extremely lucky to have such things as Health Kinesiology to occupy my mind and keep me smiling... even when I truly do feel like hitting my head on a brick wall... hard!
Back to the point of this blog... I have probably said before the importance of being selfish at times in life but it's one of those times again. I have always done things to please others, do what is expected of me, which is why I have done what I have done, stood up for myself and how I feel.
In the words of my darling Mother "centre yourself, breath and then say f*** it!"
Have a wonderful week all, as I am sure I will.
Love always
