So I've decided that the hardest part of life in between is that I'm constantly changing my mind about myself. You know the big question, who am I? On the surface I know who I am, or who I'm going to be, a teacher. I'm going to be an educator. (I'm soo excited about this btw!) But deeper than that, way down, who am I? Not to mention, a profession doesn't determine who someone is or isn't. In fact, all this talk about stages in life and where I've been and where I'm going do not define who I am. So who gives a shit about all this stages talk. Marriage, kids, a career...all these things are on my mind night and day. I can't seem to shake living in the future. But why? Those are all great things but they won't define my life or the woman I am. So as I was reading everything I wrote yesterday I found it all so shallow. Today I'm feeling regret on a much deeper level and that is that I don't feel like I am consistent. I'm constantly changing my mind about how I feel, my ethics & morals, etc. Somedays I feel like I need to be a nicer person who doesn't judge people so easily. I decide that I'm going to stop talking about people behind their back and apologize to those I've been mean to. Then I think I'm going to try to be a person of good character. BUT the next thing I know it's tomorrow and I'm back to judgement and ridicule. I have the ability to become one of those shallow girls that smiles at your face and pisses on your back. And I HATE that. I want to sincerely like people simply because I respect the fact that they are different. And so this desire to be genuine is there everyday, however some days I just can't fulfill it.
Wow. I am so rambling right now. That's kind of the mood I am in tonight though. I'm just staring at the screen and typing like a robot. So anything in my mind is just spitting out in the text box. Please accept my apologies if none of it makes sense.
