Disappointment
It’s funny, all my life I’ve been so worried about disappointing everyone else. Lately, it’s come to a head. I’ve over commited myself, giving myself more credit that I actually deserve. I’m not superwoman, I can’t be in 15 places at once, but I’ll damn well sure try! However, I’m exhausted. Absolutely exhausted. Tired of letting everyone down, tired of caring that I let people down, and tired of letting myself down.
I came to the realization this morning actually that the only person I need to worry about letting down is myself. Only took me 25 years, but I might finally be getting a hang of this adventure called life. Don’t hold your breath though…. Life’s lessons have a hard time sticking in my brain, generally takes being slapped upside the head three or four times for it to stick.
