Realization #727…

Words can alter how someone feels about you in a split second. Words are powerful. Think before you speak.

Its funny…

how someone will disrespect you and then have the audacity to justify why they disrespected you….oh but they didn’t mean to.

I used to…

shut down when I got upset.

I wouldn’t say anything.

I can’t describe the feeling of being truly upset and wanting to say something but being unable to do so.

No one understands but its like screaming but no sound comes out or no one can hear you.

I have a hard time confronting people and although I’ve gotten better in expressing myself. I have ways to go.

Not being able to do so from childhood into young adulthood definitely had some type of impact.

But I don’t use it as an excuse. My inability to communicate sometimes or majority of the time is terrible.

I’ve gotten better though.

I feel like the only way I can truly communicate is when I write.

That’s not good.

Communication should come from both areas in writing and speaking but mostly speaking because when we didn’t know how to write we spoke to communicate.

I’m trying though.

I wish…

I had a way with words.

I wish I spoke eloquently.

I wish I spoke poetically.

I wish that everytime I spoke it would set souls on fire, make hearts melt, awaken souls, and move mountains.

I’m struggling to find that “voice” I guess.

Its one of Gods greatest gift…its a beautiful gift.

“Just why that you would overnight
Turn love to stone as cold as ice
I’ll never know” — “Rocket Love”, Stevie Wonder

Its funny…

how music speaks to you when you don’t want to be spoken to.

Life is moving too fast…

I’m overwhelmed.

I’m somewhat confused.

Everyone I want to confide in is not available.

Those I have to confide in just don’t understand or aren’t giving me enough.

I know what I want.

I have things laid out for me to get there.

But why can’t I see anything beyond that?

If I’m not…

learning

working a job that will positively attribute to achieving my future goal

busy

I feel worthless.

I don’t like not doing anything. I always need to be productive.

Realization #724…

Pride will either cause you to miss out on opportunities life provides…in extreme cases it might even slowly kill you.
