What it takes: December 30th, 2008

it's nice.  to know i've come so far.  to have my family's support.  to have friends i can rely on. 
it's great to know i don't do things out of spite.  that all in all i know... i am a good person.
i don't wish ill will upon anyone.  i don't care if someone wishes ill will upon me.  i just want people to be genuine, honest, and kind.  if they're not, well that will come back around someday.  it won't affect me because it can't.
it's confusing to me as to why people do things that negatively impact others. 
i don't understand why someone would go out of their way to disrespect someone.
as far as it goes, this doesn't really affect  me.  if that's how someone wants to be in their personal life, hey it's your life... do what you will.  but when it comes to my family... my daughter.
i just expected more.  more respect.  more communication.
someday my daughter will grow up.  she'll have opinions, she'll understand, she'll make her own decisions.  until then all i can do is play as active a role in her life as i can.  teaching her along the way.  to be empathetic, kind, respectful towards others.  to be strong, smart, and self confident. 
however the next 18 years play out i'll be happy as long as she's safe and taken care of.  to the best of my ability i'll ensure both.
