Because YOU are SOOOO SPECIAL!

Awwwwww, if only we had grown up at the same time and the same neighborhood, neither of us would have had to feel that way apparently, sweet dear Sue.

It's such a lonely feeling to live through isn't it? I can deeply empathize. I am quite a unique or eccentric thinking person apparently according to most.... when I was growing up even all my friends (THANK GOODNESS I STILL HAD A BUNCH OF FRIENDS WHEW!!) would say "I love you but I will never understand you." They said it affectionately with a smile or a nudge or a laugh and I would smile and laugh too but inside it tore my heart out. I knew they were right. I even FELT different and noticed I perceived people and situations very differently than my peers seemed to. It made me feel like a fish out of water... like some alien or something. I could feel all alone even surrounded by lots of friends. My friends would say I was weird... although a weird they liked I guess. haha. That hurt too but I didn't say so. MY GRANDPA would say I was NOT WEIRD I was VERY SPECIAL like a little earth angel and no wonder I was born on Christmas like a Christmas star. awwww. He said any earth angel would feel out of place here because she is closer in spirit to Heaven than to earth is why.

I don't know who is right but I learned it depends on who you ask. But like COACH teaches.. we CHOOSE our OWN attitude and such so I have CHOSEN to believe my GRANDPA. hee hee. wink. I think YOU should follow my grandpa's advice too Sue.. because when he died he had been so kind to so many kids in the neighborhood and to so many charities and needy neighbors they even made a full page article about this humble and very poor man in our newspaper. So I KNOW if YOU Had grown up next to me you would have been named Angel Sue by him back when you were still a little girl... I guess your inner voice let YOU know the truth and inspired your name to let you know WHY you are not weird.. not alone... just SPECIAL. You certainly ARE!

and you are NOT ALONE.

You're not alone

That made me cry!

It's so sad, the way we treat ourselves sometimes...why is it so hard to "believe" that we are good people?

Before I read your blog, I was looking over my tools check list, I was thinking about what to put for the part that says "today I will not lie to myself about......" 

Do you know what came to my mind? "Today I will not lie to myself about the fact that I AM A GOOD PERSON."

I am, really, and you are too! So, no more lies. We are good people AND THAT IS THE TRUTH! AMEN!
