Detox
Detox: To cleanse. To totally rid oneself of all harmful toxins; total cleanse, to purge. (Naphtalia's dictionary, first edition)
I feel like a long chapter in my book has finally closed. The story of pain, heartache, depression, and lack is over. I want a happier, healthier, more productive life. I’m tired. I’ve put up with enough. I’ve reached my breaking point and I’m drawing a line in the sand. These are some of the thoughts that have carried me to this point…
∞ If you have a problem with me, delete me from your life. You aren’t doing me any favors. Believe me. My feeling will not be hurt. Roll out…
∞ There are two things men do when they want something (or someone for that matter). Pay for it or go get it. If he’s not doing either of the two, he’s not interested.
∞ Life is too short to settle. Make sure you have no regrets when you die. In fact, make sure you have no regrets tomorrow.
∞ If you thought of it, it can happen.
∞ Keep your friends closer. Make your enemies your friends.
∞ If I want it, I’m going after it. I have to at least give it a try.
∞ Respect is given. You decide whether or not you want to keep it.
∞ I really don’t have to explain myself.
∞ The best thing I can do for myself is to give--give to someone who has or is going through what I’ve been through. Give to someone so they don’t have to go through what I’ve been through.
∞ Reading is fundamental. It really is.
∞ I like Barack Obama. I support him fully, no matter what he does.
∞ If VH1 comes up with another spin off, I’m going to burn my tv.
∞ It’s ok to take time for me. Even if that time is 2 years.
∞ Men are attracted to confident, self assured women.
∞ I don’t care what people say—men DO want a woman who knows how to cook!!
∞ Women DO want someone to take care of them!!
∞ People spend so much time hating and picking at people they don’t like, that they forget to enjoy the people they do like.
∞ There’s no rush to complete the journey of life. Enjoy the ride until it ends.
∞ Everyone deserves at least one chance.
∞ If love walks up to you and smacks you in the face…turn the other cheek!
∞ I can learn something from anyone.
∞ Your actions do not control my re-action.
∞ I decide how people will treat me.
∞ My naivete is not a negative trait. I don’t know everything. But I know something.
∞ Old people are not neccessarily wise people.
∞ I am open to change—but not for the sole purpose of making someone else happy.
∞ The way it is isn’t necessarily the way it is.
∞ I’m content because I want to be.
∞ I’m not here to impress anyone. (That's a relief!)
∞ I think Solomon was right when he said, "Eat, drink, and be merry!"
