What’s the worst thing you can call a woman? Don’t hold back, now. You’re probably thinking of words like slut, whore, bitch, cunt (I told you not to hold back!), skank. Okay, now, what are the worst things you can call a guy? Fag, girl, bitch, pussy. I’ve even heard the term ‘mangina.’ Notice anything? The worst thing you can call a girl is a girl. The worst thing you can call a guy is a girl. Being a woman is the ultimate insult. Now tell me that’s not royally fucked up.

Perhaps you know that feeling when…
You feel like nobody believes in you. “Perhaps someone else would be better. We’re not sure you’re up to this.” Perhaps it is true.
“You have been a real disappointment lately.”
I hear this a little too aften these days. It is rather new. Or not. Perhaps people always thought it but never found a opportunity to tell me. I am starting feel more and more inferior to others every single day. I am currently useless. Perhaps I have always been, but never realized. Until they told me.
“Why?”, I often ask myself. “Why can’t I do something great, just this once in my life? Perhaps I just suck. In every single possibly conceivable. Compared to other bright stars, i’m a dim flickering table lamp. I don’t know if can go on, to be honest.
This really brought me down. I don’t know if I will ever think of myself in the same way. I don’t know if I will ever think of myself in the same. It is a very strong feeling of heartache. I can barely control my tears.
To answer y own question, yes. I know that feeling too well. It has come up numerous times in my life, and is coming about more and more often. Perhaps it is a sign. Maybe from God. I thought was destined for great things. Maybe not after all.
Is it worth it?
But most importantly, am I worth it?
Those shall always be very relevant questions in every aspect of everything I ever do in life.
Remember, that a little bit of encouragement goes a long way. It could make a huge difference.

when your friends say it
when the teacher say it

About me
There are many things I wish I was... but guess what? It ain't gonna happen, and I'm content with what I've got. This blog simply reflects all of the things I would say "Give me an AMEN!" to. and that's pretty much how I roll.
