“One morning she woke up different. Done with trying to figure out who was with her, against her, or walking down the middle because they didn’t have the guts to pick a side. She was done with anything that didn’t bring her peace. She realized that opinions were a dime a dozen, validation was for parking, and loyalty wasn’t a word, but a lifestyle. It was this day that her life changed. And not because of a man or a job but because she realized that life is way too short to leave the key to your happiness in someone else’s pocket.”
my friend just sent me this and it describes who I’ve been my whole life. I stayed to myself in school not because I couldn’t make friends I simply didn’t have the desire it was never there it still isn’t. I’ve never till this day had a boyfriend. All my life I’ve been made to feel like I’m not doing life right. Why because I don’t feel the need to have a husband and 3 kids right out of highschool? Because getting black out drunk waking up in a person I don’t know bed isn’t my type of night? There is nothing wrong with any of those things if they float your boat.
However there is also nothing wrong with wanting to stay in and get lost in a good book with a nice up of tea, or driving 2 hours to the beach to simply watch the sunset and listen to the waves for hours, or just simply sit outside and be. Every once and a while I’ll step outside my zone of comfort and try to do things that sometimes The thought of excites me and most times I’m reminded why I prefer books.
I was told recently that being this way id end up alone.... why is that a bad thing why is that always made out to be an insult. Okay and? I like me, I like my presence. I would rather live alone and LIVE, see, explore go on adventures. Then simply be with someone just to be with them just to say look I have somebody So I fit the norm. No I love me. I know I may be different and not the average 23 year old but that’s fine too.
In my bio I talk about How Rome wasn’t built in a day but when it was complete it was magical and how I looking forward to building my Rome one day. I’ll build my Rome either way weather I’m with someone or alone and either way it will be magical because it’ll be mine.
