I feel the need to reframe…

I need the comfort of that balance. I know the crap doesn’t go anywhere, but that’s seldom all there is. I get the exasperated “you’re so positive all the time!” I get the shake of the head “what a pollyanna.” But I’m neither, really. I just like the balance, and usually everyone else is focused on the crap so it’s the good stuff I need to point out. Am willing to point out. When someone’s riding the wave of the good stuff, the crap goes through my mind, but I rarely have the heart to point that out unless I think it serves a purpose. Not when there seems so little happiness to be had. But I’m never turning the picture around; I’m just widening the frame. Nobody wants to hear the entirety of what you think about a thing, but if you whittle it down, they so often whittle you with it. I always find it just a little shocking how quickly I’m stuffed in a box and how determined some can be to keep me there. What box for any of us would not be too small??? Ah just silliness. Just life. Just interaction. I can only do it the way I can do it and let the chips fall. We all have our own brand of weird to hand out like souvenirs. 🙃

Ha!! You just be who you are.... which is beautiful all the way .....

It happens to me too.... once someone dear and near told me : "you are always smiling" ... and they said it in a way as it was wrong....

what does it matter how they define us as long as we are true and honest in who we are....

Much love to you lovely Nik...

@Soossie and to you Soossie!! There isn’t a box that could hold you! 🤗😄❤️
@JustNik

And the World is a too small box for your heart and mind... 🤗😘🌹🌹
I see you as a wise and humble person. A pollyanna type? No way. You're just balancing between the positive and negative. A realist from what I see in your writing(s). Stay authentic to yourself. That's most important.🌷

I don't think I've ever heard it said so well, so humbly yet so clear... almost want to stand and clap.

Fly that freak loud and proud. You’ll find where you belong without being placed in a box. ❤️

Did you like go under the table and accidentally blow the janitor instead of the owner or something?
JustNik · 51-55, F
@Steve42 that must be it.
