A Person I Wish I Could Be....July Seventh, 2013

****

A person I wish I could be...hmmm. I like myself the way I am but saying that is kind of a lie. I really don't know what to say here. Do I just exlpain what kind of person I wish I were?

I guess I'll do that.

I wish I could be a person who is willing to stand up for what I believe in at all times. No matter who's saying what or where I am, I wish I would just stand up and say what I believe instead of just sitting back letting whatever happens, happen. I'm tired of being "the shy" girl who agrees with everyone because she wants to be accepted. I don't care about that anymore! Yes, I want to be accepted but only from people who really like the real me..not the shy me that won't show everyone who I really am. 

I want to be kinda like I was in the eighth grade. I told everyone my opinion and didn't let anyone pick on my friends or people who didn't deserve it. 

But every since I started last year as a freshman, I held back, bit my tongue, because I didn't want everyone against me. I felt like it was the easiest thing to do- was to sit back and just go along with everything. Well, I'm not going to my Sophmore year! I need the be me- the REAL me. I know at first I'll be shy but I need to get over that. I need to realize that I'll find out who my true friends are if I be the real me.

I'm always letting people "run" over me but that's going to change. I'm tired of giving people chances. I want to be someone who stands up- not only for other people- but for herself as well. I want to be a person who is strong and everyone knows it. I want to be a peson that people respect and really care for. 

I don't want people to just look at me and see me a "that little girl" or "that shy girl" or "Jeffery's little sister". Because I am so much more than that. I need to show them that because that is the only way they will ever know. 

I also, need to quit seeing myself the way I do. If I change the way I see myself, maybe everyone else will change the way they see me, too. Maybe, people will respect me more. 

I want to be a person who isn't too talkative- but isn't shy either. She says what she needs to say and that's it. I want to be a person who lives life to the fullest and who haves fun. Someone who knows when to be serious and when to be silly. Someone who will let people in and throw out the ones she doesn't need- the ones who cause more pain than joy. Someone who makes their life all it could and should be. Someone who believe entirely in themselves and their loved ones! Someone who cares and is passionate beyond anything. 

But what's the point in wishing to be different if you are too scared to make the change? Too scared of what people will think? Of what will happen? Of what you don't know? 

Why am I always so scared and afraid of what could be? What will happen? Isn't the point in life- to not know what's going to happen? I mean, you aren't living if you just sit around day by day doing the same thing over and over right? You aren't living if you never change- never switch it up? How do you make the change? 

I wish I could be a person who isn't afraid of change and let's life happen. Not someone who sits back doing nothing at all. I wish I could be someone who people look at and say, "Hey, I wish I lived like her! She seems to have a pretty fun life." And at the same time, "Yeah, she's so smart and knows how to get things done." You know? But..I guess this is just how life is.

You wish for one thing but have another. I am who I am. Maybe, one day I'll change. Maybe, I won't.. Who knows? 

(A/N I don't know if this is what it meant or not. But..I kinda just wrote whatever came to mind. :-) Well, tomorrow is the last day for this. I'm thinking about adding one more bonus but I don't know for sure yet. Thanks for reading! Please, comment and/or vote! Bless you all!! ^.^)
