I don't know if anything like this has ever happend to but I would like for you to try and understand. My Grandmother once told me, "Do for yourself, I know it's tempting to make everyone else happy instead of yourself because that's the kind of person you are. This may sound a little selfish this world revolves around you, because you're living this life. So do for yourself and I garrente you'll be happy." Ever since she told me that, I've been trying to think about what she said before I make any decision. However, one of the only things that makes me happy, is to make other people happy. Anyway, a recent decision I made was, to runaway from home to be with someone special to me. And I've been very confident about this decision. I think I can succeed and be happy. I am doing this for myself and for the special person. However, everybody has some kind of issue with it. I never really asked for anyone's opinion really. I just told my best friend about it yesterday and she said to me, "I'm 100% on your side weather it's a good idea or a bad one." So I said,
"So you're saying it's a bad Idea..." And she said, "Well, from what I've heard it's really racist up north and I just want you to be safe." I guess she's just being a friend to me, but still. I'm afraid of this decision, it feel's so wrong yet so right. Everyone that I've told seemed to be against it with some sort of reason like my friends. So from now on, I've decided not to tell anyone else about it, not because I don't trust them, it's just I getting beat down because of my decisions. And even if this decision of leaving for a day or two is a bad idea, everybody makes mistakes. I'm not perfect of course, just like everybody else. Honestly, I don't care if this is a bad idea, I just want to see him..Even if it's only once this year. I'm dedicated to him and I made a promise that I would try to visit him, not only to make him happy but to make me happy too. I don't know hopefully you can understand this, if not then well, thanks for reading anyway.
