strength?

Creative Created on 5-4-08 Views(12) Story Rating G

strength. do i got it? some say ive got the strength to move a mountain. there are some who think i can be ruined by one miserable unhappy human being. others simply think i am weak. although the number of people who think i am weak is close to none...there is such a person. she knows who she is. people are so quick to judge. people are so quick to assume. few know the real me. meanwhile most people just think they know me. those who do know me...love the person i am inside. nobodys opinion will ever matter to me. only opinion that matters is none other than my own harsh.. blunt self. do i got strength? sometimes. maybe. yes. yes i do have strength. sometimes i just need to be reminded of that. i used to say that crying was a sign of weakness. i lived by that statement everday. now... im not so sure. someone once told me to let it all pour out one day. i asked for advice and she came up with the best answer of piece of advice anyone has ever given me. CRY. let it out val. its called a break down...every one has one once in a while she said. made me realize i am not made of steal...and i sure as hell did not enjoy crying but for some strange reason.. it worked. it might not have been the kind of advice i was looking for but i guess you can say it helped me a lot. i cried. for hours i cried. seemed like nothing was getting out of bed in the morning. hours turned into days and i painted a smile on my face when people were around but when i was alone... oh did i cry. now... things arent so bad. other people have it way worse than i do. i learned that even though my life may seem difficult and i might not always get what i want...life is going to be tough sometimes. you just got to learn to get throught it. cry when you need to cry. face all your problems and just know it could always be worse. everything happens for a reason someone has said a time or two. and yes it does. my life is not so bad and yes i do cry. so.. once again i ask myself do i have strength? yes i have strength. i have to strength to cry. crying is not a sign of weakness. i stand here face to face with my old self and my old ways and im saying its ok to cry. its ok to tell someone your upset or hurt and most of all...its ok to let someone in. its ok to let someone rip through your walls of defeses you have built up for so long. when the time is right and someone wants nothing more but to be allowed inside my bubble wrapped heart...i just might let them.
