So, all of you who read my posts know that I am very very serious about always trying to be a better person. My friends and others that know me all say they see little tiny changes in me, more obvious changes like the music I listen to, the way I dress, etc. But no one ever says anything about my attitude. Heck, I work extremeley hard in school now, and people don't even seem to notice that.
Two weeks ago I did bad on a Chemistry test(stupid 88%s) and I got really upset. I studied hard for that test and actually thought I did well.. so, when Igot the test back, it was almost to the point where I could have cried. And I kept beating up on myself calling myself stupid and such as I normally do. All this time, through the summer, I'd been working to change and fix myself. I thought I had changed, but I hadn't. I may not take my anger out on others anymore, but fact is, it is still taken out. And all of it is taken out on myself. This made me realize that I had not changed, I only changed WHO I took my anger out on.
I guess taking it out on myself is better than others, but it is still jsut about as unhealthy. And the fact is, I wanted to CHANGE.. and still do, but am starting to feel hopeless.
As much as I try, I fail 20/21 times..
I guess it's easier to motivate yourself to be kinder to others rather than kinder to yourself.
