Strength
Strength is found in those who forgive for whatever somebody has done to them. And even what people are currently doing. It’s wishing the best for people and letting them go after so long. It’s knowing that there’s so much better waiting, and it’s finally closing a chapter in my life. I’m proud of how focused and happy and determined I’ve become.
This is what you’ve taught me.
You pushed me to become me. And I don’t really care if you hate me, because it’s that hate that drives me to become such a better person than you are. And I’ve learned not to care about what anyone else thought.
I treated you so badly, and that was the hardest thing to get over. And I am very slowly forgiving myself. But you should have never used those poor girls to get over me. That’s the wrong way. You may have felt like a man, but you will never understand the amount of respect people for lost for you. You traded your respect for your ego and popularity.
I don’t know why I didn’t realize it before, but there was one person who was always there for me. And continues to be there for me after all I’ve been through. He is one of the greatest gifts I have stumbled upon in life, and you will never match up to the kind of man he is.
I don’t care how many friends I lose over you. They chose you over me. It’s not a loss for me, it’s eradicating all those people who would never truly be there for me. I’d rather be lonely than a person with a million fake friends. I am strong enough to stand on my own two feet without standing beside you or anyone else. You don’t define me. Society doesn’t define me.
I define myself.
Goodbye, and thank you for all you have done for me.
