All these many years that you have know me I never really opened up. I was never really myself. In the past months, I've been pieceing me back together. A friend help me to realise I couldn't keep up a wall forever. I guess you could say I've been learning how to fly.... I thought i was going well. But really i was still itching for aproval. Last night a change occured in me. It's being comming for a long time now. But it's only been really noticeable in the last two nights... Friday I started out the way i'd always been worring what the others are thinking. Ever so slowly i was able to let loose, to drop the defences and be ME! Last night i was able to tell the truth to some of my oldest friends....and some new. I was able to let loose, to be free. But there was something different about me. Something came out of me, was realised in me. I was only ever a good girl cause thats the way people saw me. Last night i didn't care what people thought. We had fun, we were noisy, we were loud. I learned something last night. Theres no such thing as being "cool" theres just being yourself. if you don't let them in they can't see the real you [This message has been edited by katherine (edited 05-12-2001).] |

Nicely done....being yourself is a key to BEING..... great one here.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
