These are the things...
Jun. 4th, 2005 12:41 pmI'm making some changes in my life. Little differences for big effects. There are just some behaviors that I'm no longer interested in continuing and some that need more attention.
As of now:
I will sing wantonly in my car, even with the top down. I no longer care if others laugh at me. Who's losing? I get to free my soul in song and they get a good giggle. I'll never see them again. And so what if I do. I'll be known as the funny woman with the funky hair color in the cute little car that's always singing like her sanity was in question. They might even give me a little extra room on the road, just in case.
I am a wildly sexual, sensual creature. I will no longer hide behind propriety, but I will continue to behave as the damn classy dame that I am. I have much living and loving in my future. I will allow my sexuality to express itself. I will not be held back by my self image. If my loved ones tell me that I am beautiful and sexy, then that's what I am this very moment. I will no longer prevent myself from feeling sexy because I do not possess a model's body. I will not waste any more time holding myself back. I will continue to take good care of my body, and enjoy myself in the now. Why waste time waiting to be happy?
I will not go where I am not wanted. I will not do things just to please society's sensibilities. Family for me are those that love me unconditionally and consider my welfare along with their own.
If family or acquaintences do things that are rude, hurtful, or mean, whether intentional or just insensitive, I will no longer feel obligated to "just take it." That behavior isn't in me to do to them, therefore, it no longer has any use in my life. I reclaim my dignity. I deserve to be treated as I treat those that I love. If it's a one way street, I'm finding a new path. I will no longer allow myself to be taken for granted. I am not to be discarded or played. I will not be a toy on anyone's shelf. I am not a pet to be trotted out to show. I am a unique little fucking snowflake, and I expect to be cherished as such.
I will no longer wait for someone else to call the shots. I can call my own. I can and should ask for things I want. I am an alpha female, I bow to no other. I will cherish the friends who are my equals, not subordinates or superiors.
I will never change my hair to suit my age. I will not dress or behave according to those society calls my peers. I am a wild, intelligent, playful, outrageous, deep, empathetic, loving, loveable woman and I choose to not hold myself back a moment longer.
