Just Say No

For a while I've tried to be a people pleaser. I wanted everyone to like me and think of me as the nicest person they ever met.

I want people to think of me as the person who puts others first but, I've found that to be difficult because many times I have to put Kristin first and I haven't.

I've always been worried about what people would think about me when I die. Will they say I'm nice or a bitch? Will say that I'm going to heaven or hell? Will they wish me be back or be glad that I'm gone? I know these are strange questions but they run through everyone's head at least once.

However, something else that runs through my mind is that someday I can forget about what everyone else thinks and just be me.

Well that day has sort of come for me. I am finding it easier to take control of my life and forget about trying to please everyone else. The fact of the matter is that I just can't make everyone happy and trying to do so will make me insane.

I want to live a long, healthy life and I won't be able to do that worrying about others. It's time to take of Kristin and it's time for you to take care of you. :))
