Selfish?....I Do not think I am

by Asabi Rawlins 06.02.2010
So... the new year 2010 has come around...pomp and splendor fill the polluted air...Indifferent narcissist make promises, people sign petitions, quiet resolves..MOST of which THEY WILL NOT KEEP.
Promises to stop lying, cheating, stealing, care for the environment and give to the needed..yh i do not think so..for most people these "PROMISES/RESOLUTIONS" do not even last till January 7th. But.... Aaaaaaaaa, Here's a promise i know i will definitely keep...wait you'll probably think this is selfish but for the first time in my 16-year life, I DO NOT CARE !

What's my promise...I promise to love me, I promise to treat me like i care about me. No longer will I allow people to treat me like crap because i matter to at least one person in this world..ME. I've spent so long concerned with what everyone thought when only my opinion should matter.
Happiness, self-satiation comes from within. I can't try to make others happy if I am not happy...I cannot try to change the world if I do not first change myself...I cannot try to make the world a better place if my own being is not in a better place than it was yesterday. If I don't take care of me then who will...and if there is no me then all the causes to which i dedicate myself will see be what they were before...

So yes, perhaps, just perhaps this is a bit selfish, but I'm not wasting anymore of my life in an unhappy self loathing hole,

From 2010 and beyond I'm loving me!
