I Deserve...

(I'm having a really, really difficult time right now, honestly I feel like I deserve what my mom calls "real abuse" right now... but I'll try to be positive.)

  • I deserve to try to connect to my inner child, now that I've found her. I realize I've always had her, but my parents seem to think that I'm "acting like a baby." Well, I deserve to act like a baby if I need to. Maybe if I'd been allowed instead of criticized, I'd remembered it sooner.

  • I deserve to recognize what a friend is. A friend is someone who will share things with you, but not get angry at your reaction, because reactions are automatic; not something you can control. A friend is someone who cares. A friend will be there for you, and although they may dump things on you from time to time, they will recognize who you are: What you're comfortable with, what you're not, what you like, what you don't like, what you're scared of and why, and what your dreams are, the dream you have that keeps you living. A friend is someone to laugh with, have coffee with, go shopping with, go bowling with, share birthday parties with.

  • I deserve to do what is right for me. Nobody can criticize my judgement or my actions. I know what is right for me, I know what my thought processes are and why I have such thought processes. I deserve to have them, and nobody should scorn me for it.
