This is my last year as a twentysomething.

Recently I've been concerned that no one really understands me and I'm this giant oddball to them. Ever tried explaining something important to someone you hope will understand and see your point of view only to have them just cut you off before the whole story is finished and let you know what they really think before they even got to the point you were trying to make? It's so damn frustrating. And the worst part is when you disagree or try to explain why you feel a certain way they immediately judge you and just say you only want to hear what you want to hear.

I mean, are you seriously kidding me? I haven't even finished what I wanted to say. I hear what I want to hear? You just say what you want to say. I wonder if we would be this direct and forward and so quick to jump the gun if it was with people we don't know well. It seems the people we hurt the most are those that are the closest to us. I need to remind myself not to impose my opinions on others. I probably do that too and not realize it.

Today although I was really happy overall, it seemed to be quite saddening afterall. You cannot depend on anyone or anyones opinion. You have to make your own opinions and believe in it and get your strength from that. You have to believe that nothings impossible and that hope is always around the corner.

This is not to say that you don't listen to the opinions of people around you and just have your own way. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but we have to agree to disagree and respect each other.
