(no subject)

I think it's sad to hear someone I respect a great deal make herself seem less than what she is. I think it's sadder still that I am aware of the way people talk about her, the way they treat her for no real good reason other than the fact that she's a little blunt. She hasn't done a mean-spirited thing ever, but people assume. People talk. And people point fingers at her. She takes this in her stride and my respect for her never lessens. She is my friend and what others say will never change that, just as always for any one I know.

I told her that I respect her, that I am happy for her, and that she couldn't, in any way, disappoint me. That she was cool enough and I did not need anyone who was "cooler".

Maybe I should lock this. Maybe it doesn't matter. Maybe other people should see it too and reflect with themselves. It's harder to see things clear on the Internet. Either way... if you feel like this, if you feel you are not good enough, then stop. Because I believe we are all good enough, if not better. Keep to that faith.

. . . Will you listen to your own words?

Well, a while back, I wouldn't have. But I think now... yeah, I would. I have better faith in myself now.

Good, then. I'm glad to hear that.

. . . Huh. I don't know what happened, but I honestly hope she is feeling better now. And about the second point of your post, uh. I agree, even if . . . I fail so much at this.

She's not the kind of person prone to depression. I just feel bad for her regardless.

Well, try at it.

That's good. I would feel the same way, so I can relate.

I try, sometimes I actually feel like I'm good enough. But tonight . . . is not a very good night for me, but I will try either way.

Mmm, that's the most I can ask.

It should be easier tomorrow.

A good sentiment. ♥
