Who are We?

"Who am I?" don't we all ask that question at some point or another? Well, I have an answer

to who we all are; just maybe not the answer you are looking for.

We are who we make ourselves, our past doesn't define us; nor do other people, the only one

who can define us is, well; us. Just because your past isn't the best, and you were abused and mistreated doesn't give an excuse for you to be all "poor me". If you don't think you can do something, try! You'll never know if you don't try.

If you have friends that are trying to help by just listening, you are not wasting their time by talking to

them, if they aren't willing to listen, they are not true friends. All I am saying in this post you are, who you allow yourself to be. If all you allow is the negative thoughts, or negative memories, or negative past rule you, all you will ever think is that you are worthless, and not friend worthy, but you are not worthless, and everyone deserves a friend. Never believe anything else,no matter how much it has been driven into your head, don't believe it.

Do not allow yourself to stay downtrodden, and wallow in your self-pity, stop and think. Think about how you feel now, do you like how you are, do you like the current you? Most of us don't, I'm only just beginning to allow myself to believe I'm beautiful, and worth something. Begin to allow yourself to believe your friends when they tell you you are OK, that you are NOT worthless.
