footprints on my face ☁

so while girl-talking today, i've realized i let alot of things happen to me that i shouldn't have. i should've stood my ground and recognized my rights. i've been walked on and let someone else's insecurities dictate my decisions. they're MY decisions. why should anyone else have any control over that? some people are going to be insecure no matter what, and you can't really mold your life around that. it's not fair to yourself. i think some people just need to realize they can't always have things their way. also that their wishes cannot always be satisfied. sometimes people are just gonna be jealous, and there's nothing they can do about it. if you keep letting them have their way, what are you going to have left? will they ever be happy? will you ever be happy?

"Jealousy in romance is like salt in food. A little can enhance the savor, but too much can spoil the pleasure and, under certain circumstances, can be life-threatening."
- Maya Angelou

"Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often confuses one for the other, or assumes the greater the love, the greater the jealousy. In fact they are almost incompatible; both at once produce unbearable turmoil."
- Robert A. Hienlein

some people like that shit, but just sayin', it's not my cup of tea. it could work for others. i'm just not a big fan. i don't thrive on that crap. some think of it as passion in disguise, but it doesn't make me feel loved.

something sooooorta similar just happened. i'm watching fresh prince and will just said to his mom "so everybody that loves you gotta do exactly what you say?" His mom got mad because she didn't want her sister to marry this guy. she irrationally concluded that her sister doesn't respect her and doesn't love her. basically, she disowned her. tell her whassup, will!

why is it that i get headaches from wearing glasses? the part that pinches my nose makes my head hurt. :(
