I Have Random Thoughts

Maybe I'm just emotionally tired, but I no longer feel like expending a lot of energy trying to impress people.

The people who like me and love me have seen me when I was not at my best, and they keep coming back anyway.

And for some people, I have made a real effort to be the best that I could be...and it didn't do any good. I might as well have saved my energy.

So....now what?

Just be you. That's enough. For what it's worth, you are at your very best, IMHO anyhow, (that is to say -- amazing) when you are relaxed and just letting yourself be that amazing EIBFPDS woman you are.

Trying to make yourself into something different to please others is a losing proposition. I mean, if there was something wrong with you, then sure, by all means, work to improve that one thing. But getting "emotionally tired" "trying to impress people" is just a bad plan. Aesop had it right: If you try to please everyone, you not only fail, but you lose your ass in the process.

The only thing I would do, were it within my ability, would be to allow you to see yourself through the eyes of those people who know you and love you. Just for a minute. You would never doubt again.

Love you, beautiful Kat
