WANTED! Respect...and a whole lot more!

Mondays...are Mondays.  So this one was no different.  It had it's ups and downs.  Believe it or not its ending with a down. :(  I have had plenty of days where I get fed up with getting no respect but today I feel more fed up...more ready to make a stand for it.  However, the one person I need to respect me most just used the line "respect is a 2 way street" in the most insincere way, which just goes to show that I don't think that statement had any heart behind it, or any meaning really.  Man up!  Furious, confused, heartbroken.  These are all words that describe how I feel but it is also sooooo much more than just that!

Days like this just go to show how much I am just ready to get back to college for sooooo many reasons!  One being, I can surround myself with people who care about me and want to hear me out and have time for me.  And will respect me; as I will respect them.

"Do onto others like you would have them do onto you." -Jesus

In my heart, I believe I do give respect where it should be given.  I just feel like the same respect is not given to me always.  Maybe I am wrong...but at this exact moment..in this exact circumstance..I do not believe that I am wrong.

I love going to work and working hard and receiving gratitude and my boss's respect for the hard work I do there.  I love seeing and being with my friends and boyfriend because I feel, see, and know their respect for me.  I cannot always or often say I feel that way anywhere else really.  And THAT is what hurts me so bad deep down.

But I still have the courage, happiness, love, and much more to put on a smile everyday and be the bright and cheery me.  SO peace out girl scouts!
