‘cause i’m through.
I used to worry a lot about if something happened – I don’t know if it was because I have been so busy lately, but things don’t bother me as much any more – the little things anyway, like traffic (well, most of the time it doesn’t bother me). It’s easier for me to forgive everything because I know I have the power in me to make things better. It’s a relief. I didn’t realize that I was doing this already until recently. It feels good! _

In fact, the more I think about all the strings I have attached to me right now, the more I just want to leave everything behind. Most of the things I have don’t mean that much to me. Just a few items. Is it really worth it to lug everything around with you your whole life? So, I have even further went on with this goal than previously thought possible. I’m not throwing all of my things out – I need sokme stuff, just the things I don’t need anymore. I’m tired of being a pack rat. It’s ruining my life. Was, anyway – now I’m streamlining it even more. Gotta get ready for that 400 sq. ft. studio apartment in LA, right?
I’m getting a little better. I try to work on it when I’m driving, because that’s when the tests are the hardest. I don’t like it when people cut me off or honk at me for no reason. I’ve been known to cry over it the next day if it’s bad enough. I keep telling myself that many people are unhappy/in a hurry/or they’re just mean on the road.
It’s getting better… I still haven’t forgiven the drunk driver that plowed into my car in May. He drove off and if it wasn’t for a woman that chased him until the police caught up, he would have gotten away. He was wanted in two other counties…and they let him go after 2 days. I know because I’m impatient and helped the insurance contact him quicker so they could finish filing my claim so I could have a car. Important thing was that my boyfriend and I were ok.He could have killed one of us though…and what, he would just drive off? I’m not as mad as I used to be, but it’s still not right.
