It's taken a long time but think I'm finally starting to think in the correct way

I’ve been getting these strong feelings for the past two months. I’ve actually had them for years but just recently started acting on them.You guys are cool, most of you are likable and have good intentions I have no beef with that. I am the same way. But you aren’t better than me. And people in public and around me aren’t magically better than me.

I don’t have to respect everybody. Why should I respect people who don’t act decently? I’m not just blithering. Does anyone else know what blithering is? Or did my dad just make it up? It means saying inane, rambling nonsense. But I’m not blithering. I am acting on it.

I am just sick of disrespectful people who use people or put people down. I see people who consider me a jerk but are acting ten times worse than me. Why should people get respect for acting like a*sholes? And when you give them respect they use it against you. Yes, I know that’s the way the world works.

But when they do that, it just motivates me to be as nice as I can and strengthens my resolve to be kind to people. If I occasionally scare someone I can’t help it. But I don’t go out looking for trouble. I’m out looking for a job, and to make my life better and I’m not out to mess with anyone. I caused my share of trouble when I was younger. But I’ve outgrown that nonsense.

But that stuff is pointless to me now. And I’m not interested in intimidating other people or intentionally causing them trouble. I’m thinking of school, what restaruant I might eat at tomorrow and going to my sisters house for a barbaque with her nice friends. This is my game plan and I will stick too it.

I don’t know what to do about people who are intentionally not nice to me either. I usually hide until I recover and go other directions than where they are.

Sounds like a good game plan @77nick77 :relaxed:
And you’re right—others are not better than you and I’m glad you recognize that.

Thanks Moonbeam. You’re very supportive as usual. How are you tonight?

I am doing well tonight. I am building some furniture from IKEA under the strict supervision of my dog. Who knew that a 6 pound dog can steal a screw driver that is almost as big as she is! :smile:

Lol, my sneaky dog used to steal my socks and eat them!

Ahaha! My little dog steals socks too.

Any plans tomorrow? I’ve been planning to start church for awhile but I’ve only gone once in the past few months.

I finally finished building the Ikea furniture. I’ll probably.take it easy tomorrow. Have a good Sunday.
