What have you learned?

kittygrrl · 12-27-2011, 11:07 AM

all kinds of love (in this world) but you have to love yourself first otherwise you risk loving things that can't love you back (the way you deserve to be)

when there is a disagreement, its better to just shut the f*** up and be thought a fool then to open your mouth and remove all doubt

kittygrrl · 12-27-2011, 12:27 PM

lying to yourself is the worse kind of lie

Miss Tia, your dog may be allergic to raw carrots. i am lol ... seriously.
they make my ears itch LOL. crazy itching!

kitty, my momma always says, what's worse than doing wrong, ...
to know it's wrong and still do it. a little on the same line as lying to yourself.

i've learned that the space between the stars can be mine if i work hard enough to get there. and if i don't, i'll forget there's space to be had in a universe that holds more than one kind of heaven.

what is a true friend? Plenty of people think they have tons of people who truly love them and will stand by them..if they do they are blessed..to me a true friend is someone who's knows you inside and out and still loves you no matter what..who will face death with you and count themselves lucky to have been a part of your life..i haven't been lucky like that yet, every "friend" i've ever had has in one way or another betrayed me (this maybe karma) but I digress. I let very few people in my life close to me, but if I consider you a friend, yes i will face death with you and if i have to give up mine to save yours..that's friendship (at least the only kind that counts)

I have learned that I have two "true" friends in my life,

... and that people who lack the maturity to have adult conversations are an endless source of amusement.

i have learned:

- there will always be mean-spirited people, and the best way to respond to that is to kill them with kindness..
- that the outdoors, & enjoying nature is my prescription to a positive day!
- that being a gentle being, doesn't mean i lay down and take it.. i'm strong and independent, even if i walk in a gentle way on this planet , and THIS planet too, lol..
- that Daddy, ALWAYS has my back..

Kittygrrl, brilliant! Without self love, how can we ever hope to love others? I used to conflate self love with conceit, but all it really means is learning to advocate, trust, respect and care for ourselves. Once that becomes a habit, I believe we learn to accept nothing less from others.
