For far too long I have let other people control me....control my feelings, my emotions, my attitudes, my behavior, and even what I wore. I changed myself to fit their image and did my best to stay in their good graces. And they still fought me and tried to control me and bring me down. And I let them. I let people who I thought had my best interests at heart "take care" of me. I thought they were doing it out of love. Turns out they were doing it out of their own sense of self-righteousness or their own sense of entitlement. Well, fuck that!
I am more than my weight. I am more than my waist size. I will never be a size 2 Barbie....nor will I ever be a Twiggy. If you don't like what you see when you look at me, stop looking! I am tall and curvy and baudy and full of boobs and butt. I am tattooed and pierced and outspoken and sometimes rude. I laugh and cry and sing and shout and scream and make weird faces. I'm a little bit crazy and a little bit cranky. I will not be quiet and I will not let you make me feel inferior. I will not let anyone control who I am or what I say or how I feel or how I act. My feelings may make you uncomfortable but they're my feelings - not yours. Control your own feelings and your own actions. Worry about yourself and stop worrying so much about me. I'll be fine.
