Why???

I promised myself that I was not going to do this but I have too.  WHY?? Why are people so critical?  Why do people judge you when they haven't taken the time to know you?  Why when I want to be sexy, I get the evil looks? WHY? WHY? WHY?

I have come to the conclusion that people want to project their views and self image problems on to you. Well, I am not going to let it happen to me anymore.  I am tired of being pushed to the background because I am the big girl.  I am tired of being overlooked because they feel that someone else can represent them better then I can.  I am not going to let them make me feel bad about myself.  I will not play the background quietly anymore.  Everyone will hear my voice and know that I am here.  No more will I let someone else take credit for my hard work.  No more will I let the way someone looks at me make me doubt my outfit.  Not going to happen again!

I have allowed people to put me in a box.  I have allowed peoples view of me mold me into this person who just followed the path that they set for me.  Now I am in the process of creating my own path.  I am going to accept myself for who I am.  I am going to make my own decisions and speak up for myself.  No more will I take no for an answer and just walk away.  I am going to keep pushing and trying until I get that yes.

This is who I am. Take it or leave me alone.
