Something For The Many That Stand Alone, For What ever The Reason Being, For Thos e Of Us That Are Mostly MISUNDERSTOOD....



Don't let what others say or do bother you, I turn it into a Positive, cause...

If you do, your letting them get the very best of you. Sometimes you can ignore it, (this is something I always try to do, I try hard to avoid the Person and or persons , Places or Things.)  but it's not always easy. Life is too short, as the saying goes. Don't sweat the small stuff, as the other saying goes. Those are two great sayings to go by. Be strong! (this I have no other choice but to be, I have no one but me) Cause when we give in to those people who are negative, we are giving the power to them. As Dr. Phil says, "Take your power back!" The best thing you can do for yourself in these situations is to be optimistic. It's mind over matter, so don't mind what doesn't matter. This I find has been the hardest for me because I care about people and how they feel about me, but I found that not everyone is going to like you, what your ideals and/or your ways. These people who are out to put you down, simply have nothing better to do with themselves. And or this is there only way of lifting themselves. And if you are a sensitive person, like I'm finding myself to be, it can really effect you. It can wear you down and stress you out. I have found myself so down at times I will let days go by without getting out of bed, checking my emails, and I will even cut of my phone. Just trying to deal with it all. This is what a person that suffer with severe depression is like. But I have taught myself  Don't let it! I counter act with Read positive affirmations and being positive. I have learned, Don't dwell on it and "brush it off your shoulders" as rapper Jay-Z would put it. I have to brush shoulders and Knee's and I give myself Positive Self Talk, Cause if I don't who will. Doing this can do wonders for how you react to other people.  To be confident in yourself  (it had been hard for me to confidence in the world that I grew up in, all the tragedies I have had to face, the negative people that had surrounded me most of my teenage life and into the earlier parts of women hood. And Still to this day) But now I have become a warrior at Staying Strong. First I think about what was said, then search the truths and/or Non truths of it, I keep the good parts  then let the negatives parts of it quickly fade.... cause Tomorrows a Brand Spanking Ass NEW DAY! And if Plan A doesn't pan out move on to Plan B! If you have gone through what I go through on a day to day basis You WILL ALWAYS Have A Plan, A,B,C, LOL!  People do not let negative people, situation and or there comments bother you, sometimes they don't even know that what they just said to you wasn't nice,(I myself is guilty of this, I'll say something not really thinking about how it was said and or how it will effect, maybe I was trying to get a laugh and or a point across either way, I may have used my words wrongly and upset someone not really trying to). But then there are those that do know exactly what they are saying isn't nice and they really don't care. Those People Don't give the any space in your mind Delete there Asses Just as fast as they open there mouths. Put up your Fire Wall! But as far as yourself you just continue in the positive and the more positive you are the less likely you will let negative comments bother you and the less likely people will be out to throw darts at you. Don't let them rob you of your happiness. Be Strong Minded, Be Positive even when some Ass try to bring you down, Be Optimistic!

A Story From A Group I Know That It Will Work Out In the End


Life is 100% relative to your situation.  Your life is built on your expectation.  What you expect from a situation will determine whether or not you will be let down or amazed.  For instance, if you’re going see a movie and someone tells you it’s a great movie, and all you hear about it is how good it is.  You go to see it and it doesn’t live up to your expectations.  Well, your then a little let down even if the movie was pretty good.  Every aspect of life is like that.

 If you’re going through a tough or bad situation it feels so much better when things get better.  The tougher or harder the situation the better it feels later.  I myself have gone through it time and time again, and I don’t expect it to stop.  I just live for the good times and survive through the bad times.  For me things are a little more extreme mainly because I am bipolar.   So, the good times are really good and the bad times are tough.

Early in my life I went through a tough situation.  In middle school, I went through a public school hell.  I wrote a piece on it, but it made my private high school experience so much sweeter.  The middle school I went to was about ninety percent black and high school I went to was about ninety percent white.  I went from being picked on every day to being voted class favorite.  But all those wonderful high school years set me up for a big letdown later on.

After high school, I went on to college to chase my dream.  Things were great for about a year or so.  Then my long time high school sweetheart broke up with me.  Well I stayed in college from then on I struggled.  I failed a Calculus class and a few others along the way.  But, what kept me motivated was the fact that no one expected me to graduate college.  Again expectations comes into play, I pushed on an graduated college.  It felt unbelievable to graduate, but in my mind I thought graduating college would fix all my problem.  By that time, I had started dating a girl that was great, smart, pretty, going to be a doctor.  The problem was that I didn’t love her.  In my mind I thought me being an Engineer and her being a Doctor, we would make a boat load of money and be perfectly happy. I found out the hard way that money does mean anything.

Once again expectations come into play, I started working as an Engineer in a really nice office thinking this is going to be great.  I so realized that I hated working in the office. I found myself hating my job and dating a girl that I didn’t want to marry.  So what happened, I had a mental break down went into a mental hospital for a week.  I came out a different person.  A few weeks later I broke up with my girlfriend and quit my job.

It’s been over four years since I broke up with her and about the same since I’ve worked as an Engineer.  Now, I’m almost thirty and I’m single.  I can honestly say that I’m just about as happy now as I’ve ever been.  Yea it’s hard watching all my friends getting married and having kids.  And yea I feel a little jaded because I’m not sure if I want to bring another girl into my life.  I’m a little worried about the future. 

To everyone out there that are in bad situations, just make it through and know that better days are coming.  No matter what tomorrow is a new day and things somehow someway work themselves out in the end.
