I'm on an adventure of sorts, one that may lead me away from here. And I'm okay with that.
It never ceases to amaze me who God will use in my life to show me things. Strangers, people I barely know, 2am Facebook conversations, rediscovered best friends, and a co worker who needs a SERIOUS attitude adjustment. But then again, so do I. I started sticking up for myself a few weeks ago, and the more I do it, the stronger I become. And I like it. Granted, I can find a slightly more gracious way of doing it, just ask my co worker, but nonetheless, sticking up for myself is a brilliant move on my part.
Ha! And I may not be an introvert! Hecka funny, right? This was pointed out to me by someone who doesn't even know me that well! God bless him, though. It makes me question a lot of things, however. Like people who supposedly know me well... are they not paying attention? When I've said, "Oh, I'm an introvert", why wasn't I confronted? Do they not care? Are they so self absorbed that they really don't know me at all? Because an almost stranger pointed something out to me that no one else brought up. Of course, I'll mention it to my best friend and she'll say something like, "well, yeah Aimee, of course". But she's known me for literally my entire life. She gets a free pass. But the rest of y'all... not so much. Well, some of you have a free pass, but not as many as you'd think. Huh. I find this all very fascinating.
I feel very free at the moment. I'm just gonna be me. You don't like it? You don't like me? Oh well. I have nothing to prove to anyone. Nothing. I cannot fully express how freeing that feeling is! I highly recommend it.
