I aim to be a good person, the best I can be. People tell me I’m too nice and let others walk all over me… I don’t. I give people the opportunity to make decisions on their own, to influence my choices regarding friendships, relationships, etc. I want you to shine and have your moment. I also want you to show me who you truly are. I give people chances because in many circumstances that’s all we have to give. I grew up watching the Lakers with my family. Kobe was a hero to us and gave us an opportunity to bond over a sport while stunned at an undeniably talented individual who would change the game and the world of athleticism as a whole. Kobe was a positive influence on me. He cared about his team, his fans, his city, and most importantly his family. He was a good person and left a legacy. He left a positive impact on all those he came across. I want to be that person. I want people to remember me in a positive way. When I’m gone people will remember everything I did for them, and no it won’t be too late…it gives them opportunity to do the same.
You cannot get mad at your significant other for expressing what upsets them. You can’t. Even if it isn’t deep to you, it may be a serious matter to them. They’re upset for a reason. Genuine consideration is key.

“
Once we make our relationship choices in an adult way, a prospective partner who is unavailable, nonreciprocal, or not open to processing feelings and issues, becomes, by those very facts, unappealing. Once we love ourselves, people no longer look good to us unless they are good for us.
