This is me to a T.
I am so independent that it bothers people.
I am because I had to be.
If no-one was there to rely on for me how else was I to be?
It was survival as a child and a way of life now.
So it's a catch 22.
I have to be so I am but no-one likes it but they don't do for me so?
The smile is extra...
I smile when they try to change me without doing anything different for me.
Confused yet?
I'm not.
I am just me ya see?
Whoa! Powerful, lady! Almost a poem. A declarative poem? Yep. I say good for you. You probably upset (scare?) those who feel "bothered" by you because they see a strength in you that they wish they had. (I also get the feeling, though, that you wouldn't mind being a teensie bit less independent if someone adored you the way you are -- and why not? -- and wanted to take care of you.) But what the heck do I know? I have trouble enough trying to figure out and understand myself, so I sure don't know diddly-sqwat about anyone else. ;o}
ReplyDeleteMamaPea you are an astute person. It would be nice to let someone take the wheel so to speak. So far that has not been an option in my life. I'm told its because I am too independent ;-} Catch 22
