Helllllllllo readers!
So, I've been doing a lot of self reflecting lately, especially since graduation. I've been thinking about what I want to do, my attitude, my future, my plans...really where my energy goes. What do I really need to be worrying about? I've received some constructive criticism recently that hurt my feelings, not going to lie. I've probably thought about it too much and y'all know how your head can take things out of proportion.
I haven't been able to shake it and I find that silly. I'm not one to usually care what anybody thinks. In short, it was about my negative attitude recently. When I first thought about it, I thought it was a little crazy. I don't feel like I am that person, but don't get me wrong, ya girl knows how to throw a good complaint. Then I started thinking about how much I've actually been complainy or negative lately, and it was a lot y'all. I was embarrassed thinking about it.
After I came to this slap-in-the-face realization, I decided I needed to redirect some energy and put the old "turn over a new leaf" cliché to good use. That's where I'm at right now, because I don't want to be seen as a negative person, that's a version of me I don't like. So here I am on this Wednesday, doing some major attitude checking. Check yo self before your wreck yo self, amiright? Trying to be a better person and all that. It's so easy to complain about something rather than say nothing at all. Needless to say, I was right to have my feelings hurt because it made me think. Think hard. I need to do more of keeping my mouth shut and my thoughts to myself. I can't say I'll contain the facial expressions, those things have a mind of their own. However, I am working on what flies out of my mouth.
