whispers

Criticism seems to be my greatest weakness. My kryptonite if you will. I've avoided it by any cost my entire life, yet still have not quite figured out the best way to dodge the bullets. I act like it doesn't hurt, I avoid talking to the person, I apologize and bend over backwards to regain their favor, I continually punish myself for not being the perfection that I think people expect and desire, I even laugh about it. But it would be a lie to say that I do not take it home on my shoulders, and hope that I can find a way to numb the pain.

Maybe if I just come up with a creative blog post.......then maybe I've earned my worth today.

I once knew a boy who never felt the pain. I sometimes wonder if he wishes he felt more, even though it may be easier for him to live his life untouched and safe.

Today was rough, and even a few whispers can set my spirit into turmoil.

~Self loathing is a waste of time~

You told me I slouched.
