The Roles Have Switched

D------3(2:14:26 PM): it seems like the roles switched
D------3(2:14:42 PM): cuz not too long ago when i didnt work it was u forever not havin time and always sleepy
D------3(2:15:01 PM): now im workin and u have time juss like i used to
D------3(2:15:44 PM):
but i guess i should be happy and realize that u cant get immediate results out of people nowadays

The conversation goes on...but the main point is...you cant expect 100% from someone if in the past you haven't given 100%. I realize that most of the time I expect people to do certain things and be certain things that I am not in return. I vow to change that. Especially for the people I care alot about...and they care enough to let me know when I'm in the wrong. Thats life for you...we live and we learn.

how does one become happy with oneself? where do you start?

Um...well...to be happy with yourself...you have to first LOVE yourself.

Think about it like this...Have you ever fell in love with someone? Doesnt matter if it worked out or not. If you have...think about why you fell in love with them. You probably didnt think about the negative did you?...if you did you accepted their flaws and embraced them...you only thought about the positives in them. You have to do the same for yourself...love yourself by eliminating the self criticism ...embracin your flaws...and think about the positive in yourself. Once you can to this...then you will be able to be happy with yourself.

Hopefully I helped you even though this had nothing to do with my post.

Umm I want a baby that looks like gizmo :-)...lol your post is so true and so relevant right now because we are approaching our 20`s and maturing and really learning who we are and wat individuals we want in our lives for the long run...as mature young adults we will learn to give 100% because that is what we will expect in a mature and friendly exchange you know...
