no dear, you made perfect sense.
i just hope that i don't fall into that trap of thinking 'well, this is how everyone else is, so it's ok' my old man was saying that other people don't care so much about everyone else, so that makes it ok. i think he's already fallen into that trap.
perhaps if i start to think of myself as a person with some good qualities and some not so good qualities, things will fall into place. but, i prefer to think that even when my not so good qualities start to come out, my truly wonderful qualities far outshine them.
no, i am superwoman :) and i'd rather be devistated when i one day find out that i'm not than to honestly believe in my heart that i'm not superwoman. i've decided to become more active. to participate more in things that i have a passion for. even if it's as simple as reading, or writing. and in my head, i'll be great (er than i already am). i don't need a nobel prize to tell me i'm wonderful. just someone to smile at me. and that is already happening. i just hope that smile goes home with that person, and is carried on from there, you know?
thank you. i appreciate your wisdom. but, i still prefer to think i'm superwoman. it does wonders for my ego :)
