Can I Be Great???

I always considered myself to be a humble individual, but evidently that’s not the vibe I give off to some others. Apparently, people think.. that I think… I’m “the shit”. I kinda laugh when I hear this because people will say they WANT you to be great….but they don’t want you to SAY you’re great. If I don’t think I’m “the bee's knees”, who will, right? Who am I to wait for validation of my phenomenality from someone else, right? I’m not afraid to say that I’m phenomenal, but don‘t misinterpret that as me being braggadocious. Yes, I do think I am a great person. Perfect? No. Better than you? That’s not for me to judge. As blunt as this may sound, I honestly believe people are shocked by my confidence and that confidence sometimes interferes with their insecurities. Thus, leading them to feel some type of way about me and claiming ..”Girl…she think she the shit!” Well girl…yea, sometimes I do.  Does that bother you? 

Put On Your Big Girl Panties!

As a woman in this world, it bothers me so much to be around other “women” who don’t know how to properly communicate with one another. Women will take the smallest, pettiest thing and blow it out of proportion when the problem could have been solved with a simple conversation. I’m a communicator. I’ll be damned if I walk around with a chip on my shoulder about anything. If I feel some type of way, it’ll get addressed…properly. Without an attitude, yelling or raising my voice. And that goes for any issue with anyone. 

We, as women, are naturally emotional if we like to admit it or not. I know that the simplest thing can set us off….be it that some female looked at you “the wrong way” or that someone’s remarks offended you.  It’s like, from jump, we’ll have an attitude when that girl MAY NOT have been looking at you or that no harm was meant by those remarks. If you feel offended or something bothered you , all you have to do is put on ya big girl draws and talk about it like an adult. Plain and simple. Swallow that pride, and COMMUNICATE!
