I'll be 33 next month and while I'm not getting any younger, I'm always striving to self-improve how I feel, how I look,and where I'm going in my life. While there are those that do not mind getting those wrinkles and sags here and there, I do. No, I'm not gonna go crazy with plastic surgery, but I have no problem getting some botox and doing some squats to lift my sagging ass back into shape. I'm the one that has to look in the mirror every day at myself and if I don't like what I see, I'm gonna change it. I'm the one that has to go to work every day and not feel satisfied, so I'm finishing my degree. I cope with life, how I want to cope with life, just like everyone else. But, I don't want to hear someone's woes if they're not taking the steps to fix it.
I know I'm stubborn, a little judgemental, but that is who I am. I didn't get where I am today without those qualities. You don't have to be judgemental in a negative sense. It just means making decisions that help you deal with life and other people's stupidity. Life isn't a free handout and you shouldn't expect one.
I know I am not liked or included by many people to include family, but I honestly don't care. You either accept me for who I am, or you don't. My honesty has pushed many away, but such is life. My priority is raising a loving son and communicating to him that life will never be perfect. He will not be raised wearing rose colored glasses and that everyone out there wants to be his friend. He will be stronger for it, just like I am. So far, he is one of the toughest, but sweetest little boys I know and has a very caring heart.
