borrowing from a friend with my thoughts

09/06/2011

I saw this on a friend's fb post and loved it but also thought about it as it pertains to what I've been searching for in life.

"When your best is not good enough for someone, it is evidence that your gift is in the wrong hands. Why be tolerated when you can be celebrated"

I think this should be true for all aspects of my life. I'm not saying I do the best all the time but I also believe I'm rarely given a fare chance to show off my abilities, skills and knowledge as well as my fun-loving, outgoing personality ... like I explained a few entries back.

I want a job where I can feel productive. Coworkers who respect me. A boss who respects me, challenges me but is positive. (ok, I think I have an awesome boss, I wont lie) clients or students or whom ever I'm working with, respect me and make my work fun and easier by their inthusiasm.

Sometimes I wonder if my family and friends like me for me or they just tolerate me and ask me to do things with them because well I guess, because they feel bad for me. My family is horible at comunication. I hear my parents complain to each other and to me about my sibs and what my parents think they are doing wrong or they think is stupid and that bothers me.

My twin and his wife take their dog on Saturdays to different parks in the area so the dog can meet other dogs and see-be new places.
my father said to me "I think Justin is losing it. He's driving all the way up here just so Lucic can walk around a park? Baer (our old dog RIP) never complained when I would just walk him down to the high school and back"

My sister and her fiancee are thinking about getting married at the Boston Aquarium.
My mom "that's just stupid. can you believe that? she wants to get married at an aquarium? They could get married at a nice hall but they are looking at an aquarium?."

I wont even begin telling you what they say about my older brother but he has an ego issue anyways so some of the things is about his social and physical health which is legit.

I would hate to know what they say about me

I like that quote, it's definitely true! Some people you can try so hard to please, but they're never satisfied, but I guess in a way, dealing with people like that push you even further to better yourself, so it works out in the end. It's definitely great to be praised for your accomplishments though.

Hmmm wedding at an aquarium? Interesting. I think it would be beautiful, but I'm more of a traditional church wedding girl, so I wouldn't go for that. lol

But the aquarium is such a COOL place to have it! And there is a dock outside next to the water where they could have their reception!!
