No Regrets
As I sit here in my father’s house, little brother running wild with play-dough flying, I have found time to sit and reflect. In my life I have been given opportunity many would die for. Although I haven’t been great in my actions, thoughts, or words; I have always tried to live by the proncipals that work for me. Some people have had trouble understanding my actions, others understand but don’t allow me into their lives. I struggle constantly to find the best in myself and try to portray that- sometimes at the expense of a friendship or relationship. This leaves me wondering: what could have been?
My principles are not my own. They are the very best of what I’ve found, adapted to my life and style.
- Say please and thank you.
- Finish what you start.
- Always be on time.
- Enjoy every moments, it may be your last.
- Find 10 things every day to be grateful for.
- Actions always speak louder than words.
- Empathy is the most valuable of emotions.
- Make your girl feel like the most special/beautiful person in the world.
- Honesty isn’t the right path, its the only path.
- Before making a decision, try to have context on the situation.
I don’t always obey, but I try. This moment of reflection is brought to you by a certain someone. She has captivated me and made me try to be a better person. The challenge issn’t to get her, it’s to be worth her. And at the moment I’m not.
I hope this post shines a dampened light on what I’m feeling/questioning right now. I speak of these matters with few to one. And I pray.
UPDATE:
As it turns out this “certain someone” has been cheating on me from the word go. So trust no longer exists in my life. I still pray.
