Positive and Negative

Description

So, I've had some stressful junk happening as of late. But through it all, it's made me realize how much I've been verbally abusing myself. I want to be able to see nice things in myself as well as I see things in others. Because if I only see good things in others and not myself, I'll get feelings like jealousy or depression, and if I'm more positive toward myself, it'll help me be ready for more commitments and such. Not only relationships, but jobs and school too.

So I'll be working on saying things like "I need to work on..." instead of "I cannot..." or "I'm terrible at...", and even if I considered myself fat, ugly, etc. before, I'm actually starting to realize I'm not as bad as I thought and my life's not too bad, either. I'm pretty lucky compared to some people. I mean, I fell in love with the most wonderful guy, I have a roof over my head, I have full access to phone, internet, and I even have 2 computers. I'm lucky enough to have grown up in a 2-parent home with parents who love each other as well as me and are super cool, have cats, had a dog, have so much stuff that I take for granted. you don't know what you got until it's gone, and now I see you have to live and try to enjoy life, right?

I know I also need to work on being more honest with myself and how I feel. If I feel like carp, then I feel like carp, I can't just slap on a smile and hide things from myself and friends. That doesn't mean I can just cry all the time, I also have to work on emotional strength, but I have to learn to depend on people more, but of course not too much.

Yeah, sorry for the rant and vent, just got stuff on my mind. Any more ideas about this stuff if you read all that above stuff?

Also here's an awesome, encouraging song:
