As much as I may seem like I have an 'I don't care what you think.' attitude, I actually do care what people think. Before I send a message to someone, before I post something, I think it over because I don't want to offend anybody. It shouldn't take more than one minute to post a status on Facebook or send a text message but for me it does.
Remember those mean girls from school? Those people that just hate you for no reason? And the person that loves to pick you as their favorite subject to talk about? It should make you mad because they feel that way way right? Well for me its different. I do get mad but I can't stand for someone to dislike me. I like to think I'm a nice, helpful and humorous person. So when someone says they dislike me or wishes a train would run over me(it's been said before) I think what did I ever do to you? Did I unconsciously flip you the bird,cut you off in traffic or run over your cat? It bugs me and I over think it.
My sister doesn't let stuff bother her like that,she has thick skin. And I have this friend that honestly couldn't care less what somebody thinks about him. He tells it like it is. And he's one of the happiest people I know.
My sister tells me I shouldn't care what people think and I know it's true,but a zebra can't change it's stripes over night.
I have learned that people are going to always have a problem with what you say and do.They will always find something wrong with the way you walk,talk and any little thing about you. And I shouldn't let that bother me. A wise person once said "Your haters are your biggest fans." and I believe that's true. If I want to wear a pink shirt with red shorts,socks with flip flops or just be myself I will.
I am going to try and be more like my sister,friend and parents and not care what other people think about me. It's what I think and God thinks about me that counts.
