Why am I the way I am? Even wanting to change my personality is so damn controlling. Had an eye awakening episode today, need to start opening my eyes more, and keep my mouth shut.
Back at the age of twelve I was given the nickname of \'Radar\' as I did in fact keep my mouth shut and my ears and eyes wide open. I knew everything about everything that was going on around me. I chuckle at that now but it was a real life saver for my being orphaned and raised in foster care where caution was a great advantage for survival.
You are seeking to find comfort with living within your own skin. I think that is the best life goal we can have and you are working on it.
As we live we learn and as we learn we live better!!!
Keep hanging in there as you are seeking, learning and finding the best way to live.
You have some beautiful qualities. Focus on them!
I\'m glad to have you as a friend.
None of us are perfect.
Do you know why I love the Winnie-the Pooh stories, because they work on two levels, one for children and one for adults. All the characters have glaringly obvious faults, and yet, they are all loved by their friends!
I just love those stories, even at my age!

You\'re like the rest of us; you are who you are.
Do the best you can with what you have and be proud

Do not take things personally. Forgive yourself, forgive others. Accept WHAT IS as a life lesson and learn from it.

Yes, Pooh Bear is one of my favs too. My childrens nursery were all decorated with this theme. True \"Friendship\" is the key to happiness
