Today

Well, I'm already bored with blogging, lmao!!! Okay, not really, I'm just not feeling it right now. I think I'll definitely be into it from time to time, I just won't be a regular blogger. Anyhow..... the video I posted is a great song!!! I don't care what anyone has to say about Britney Spears, lol. This song has an excellent message. :)

*Edit: I was able to add video to a post a few days ago and now I can't, so here is the url for the video. Sorry it's not a link :( lol

One-sided Friendship

This is going to be a short post, a little bit of a vent, but mostly just thoughts I've had about human interaction. I've been dealing with a friend, actually a couple of them lately, but mostly one who I'm noticing more and more what a one-sided friendship it is. Now, I've never been one for keeping score and having to keep things even exactly, but you have to have some give and take for it to really be a friendship, much like marriage. Lately it seems like this one friend has gone from being there for me very little to almost not at all. I understand distance and time not really being an issue with real friendship, but my feeling is it has to be a mutual distance from one another. The problem is that this friend has high expectations of me. I support this friend and am there for this friend fairly consistently... and I do it because I WANT to do it. I enjoy being a good friend and a part of this person's life, but it's starting to get hard not feeling a little put off by the one-sidedness of it all. As I expressed before, I don't keep score. ....however, I would like to be thrown a bone every now and then. I know if anyone is reading this, their thoughts are that I need to talk to this friend and it will come to that as things continue this way. I guess I just needed a place to vent and collect my thoughts first. I've confronted this friend before and she's a little insecure in handling confrontation and felt attacked previously. It will be a touchy subject, no doubt. *sigh* I like this friend and she's a great person, otherwise, why would I bother? I guess my real dilemma is determining that point when a friendship is no longer worth it. This certainly hasn't been the first time I've had to face this issue, but it's usually been a lot more clear to me if the person is worth it. Sometimes it's really hard to tell the difference between you being the petty one and needing to overlook something and a person taking advantage of you and you needing them out of your life. *HUGE SIGH*

What is a Warrior Chick?

A warrior chick is a woman who believes in herself.  She has hard times, like anyone, but loves her life.  A warrior chick is focused on overcoming obstacles, not dwelling on why they're there.  A warrior chick loses thousands of battles, but everytime she gets back up, she's stronger and determined more than ever.  A warrior chick knows she is the strongest person she knows.  She always has at least one eye on her goals and is unrelenting in her determination.  A warrior chick loves and serves those close to her, but takes care of herself as well, knowing she would have nothing to give without loving herself first.  She is a leader, not a follower...

A warrior chick knows that the sting of rejection and the humiliation of failure are small in comparison to achieving her dreams.  She defines what her specific morals and values are and doesn't let anyone change who she is.  A warrior chick doesn't let anyone define what she is capable of doing, except for herself.  A warrior chick will shed two tears for her sorrows and then crawl her way back out of the pit, temporarily tattered, but back on solid ground...

A warrior chick lives with passion.  She is aware of her softer voice of reason and mighty voice of thunder and how to appropriately employ both.  A warrior chick faces confrontation, sometimes initiating it, over important things.  She realizes the power her natural sexual attributes give her, but chooses to not use them unwisely.  She climbs to the top of mountains.  A warrior chick runs... 

A warrior chick is concerned for her country and gets involved in the ways she can, staying true to her individual morals.  A warrior chick has a brilliant mind and a love of being educated, which when coupled, make her a truly powerful and even dangerous individual.  She realizes how wonderful her friends are and hopes to never take them for granted.  A warrior chick cares...

A warrior chick can appreciate her cultural femininity with high heels and makeup, but never lets it define who she is.  She realizes her own jealousies and insecurities and works to overcome them, knowing that she is the one with a problem, not the person her jealousy is projected at.  A warrior chick is afraid, but she does it anyway.  A warrior chick knows how to confidently tell someone no.  She realizes her time is just as valuable as the next person...

A warrior chick fights, even though she knows she will bleed...

A warrior chick is me.
