accept myself

Why can’t I look within for the things I want?

that would be love respect, and acceptace
should someone actually be showing and giving me these?
love is already another subject on this site…respect should be a given, but it’s not. I respect myself don’t I?
would I do the things to myself if I did? would I let others do wrong to me if I did? I don’t think so, seeing that is why I am questioning myself so much

I give to much of myself to others too quickly too much
only to hope that they would do the same, have the same openess. caring respect, bla bla bla
I want to get back what I give.
wouldn’t that be nice. to get the love, respect acceptance that I give to others..would life be sweeter than?

I have changed and accepted some things tht I cannot change.

Does that make me any more wise? I sure don’t feel like it. I feel like more about giving up. just get over it accept it move on.

Depending on what it is, it is hard to do.

Love sucks *#$ !

life is shitty at times, but dwelling on them is the worst thing I can do. blaming me for thing that go wrong is stupid, life happens, like it or not. My son was telling my daughter --we can’t alwasy do what we want. she wanted to watch a movie b4 bed, and he knew I would say no, it was really good of him. not b/c he said it in any snotty way but he was honest about he KNEW that. acceptance. he finally gets it. we can’t always do the things we want. we do the things we need to.

acceptance, is getting better for me, my family is great and supportive of me going to school my bf is still in love with me, and me with him. my kids are well behaved and healthy. I am a good person and I CAN ACCEPT that.

acceptance is something I have always seeked, whether it was from parents friends boyfriends, whatever, I was always look in the wrong places…....outside my self.
Since being on meds getting ahold of my depression and having enough support to go to school, and then to go, I have made myself so proud to be me, to say I am happy and fuck off if you can’t ACCEPT that. I like being me….now! whatever the reasons or causes. I am still me, not just so clouded with negative.
