This moment in the journey

I don't really see myself as some sort of "idol". I think it's more that I just choose to be myself regardless of what oppressing society mongers think. 
I have lived the first 16 years of my life trying to please my family and keep up images that society placed upon me. It was in that 16th year that something happened to me mentally. I felt out of sync with what I was taught and decided to go with what I felt. I used my feelings to guide me towards what I truly wanted to do and who I truly wanted to be.

Your feelings will always be a ground guide to the true you. You are taught to mask them, hide them and even falsify them to protect yourself. I promised myself that I would never again not be true to my feelings. Let me tell you, it's been one hell of a roller coaster of a life. If you follow your feelings you will definitely know where to go. The only feeling you should learn to overcome is fear. You can let fear hinder you or how you truly feel or you can learn to overcome it.

In the end, I truly believe what you feel is a good guide book to knowing who you truly are. You would be surprised at how many people spend their entire life not knowing who they are at all. But I can't blame them. Look at the school system in America. You are taught from childhood to follow orders and to never question "structure". But one thing the school system with all of its systematic lies can't teach you is how to "be" you.

You are what you believe to be. You are only confined by what you choose to believe in and another person only has power over you that you chose to give them.

I need to talk about this. If you really care about someone you have hurt or wronged, then be an adult and actually apologize. An apology is a sincere and honest acknowledgement of empathy and growth in character. If you wish to apologize to someone, you should just accept it for what it is. Anyone willing to add drama and mind games to the mix.... example: I'm sorry I hurt you but,....Nope sorry was enough. Once you say BUT, you have nullified your apology. THIS is not being an adult. THAT is not taking responsibility. It is a justification to explain arrogance and selfishness. Something I simply do not respect at all. If you can't take responsibility and admit that you are wrong, then you are nothing more but an arrogant child that only deserves the respect a child gets. So please do not be surprised if I'm not talking to you. You deserved every bit of it. I don't acknowledge over grown children.
