Elena: my life stories (short stories) | book 1 | ✔️

You can take it with you!

The one thing about your past, and even your future, as you can take it with you, no matter what I've learned that through many memoirs that I have read, as well as just personal experience that you can take it with you you authenticity the fact who you are is whether white regalia or a half bad that being said, I was able to shake most of my identity off in high school but not all of it. There was still rumours swirling around about me being in the FBI that being said I wish and I'm the pope! That being said, I was not very excited about being picked on royally at the first day of school and stuff, but as I said, you can take it with you your past any of your future I didn't have a future at that time because I still have those travel restrictions on me And if I were to go anywhere near an airport, I was to be searched like a it was kind of embarrassing to be honest with you!   But since I was just a young teenager. I didn't understand that this is part of who you are. This is part of what makes you who you are like your DNA fingerprints your hair colour shape of your eyes whatever this is what makes you you as well your emotional DNA your emotional identity as if it's something that is, engrained in you!   
And I am telling you were the idea that your past is what makes you you is part of who you are that being sad. It's like your heritage you can't shake it off forever is gonna come back to you!  I know a lot of people would question my authenticity on some of the stories are they true? Are they not so true for that? I say I know what authentic to me and what is the truth to me but if you can't handle that, that's your problem. I know what happened to me and what made me in the first place that being said, you can't handle that get out of the kitchen! 
But I'm telling you that when I was in high school, everything followed me the eating disorder rumours and stuff nowadays I just rocket and just try to end up being who I am and say well it was a learning curve for me. It's part of who I am it's part of what makes me wake up in the morning to prove to those mfers, then I'm not going down without a fight. I remember one time when I was getting a tattoo that I asked for a specific finger tattoo on my middle finger the; on both my middle finger injures that being said, I was making sure that if anyone award who questioned my authenticity or try to end my story that they would get a piece of my mind right away that I ain't going nowhere and my story isn't gonna end in this case!
That devil may care attitude that I have had for many years is finally starting to pay off as I am now 35 years old I still remember what had happened to me, but I try to go for forgiveness and self respect that being said it's a little bit easier to go down the tube that rabbit hole and go insane, but I'd rather choose the high the highchair if you would instead of just being a pain in everyone's ass and being miserable it will not affect me if I affect other people negatively that being is stated!
