She means well. I know she does. But, it’s my family. I can take care of them, my way. I don’t need her so called “help.” Really, every thing is going just fine the way I am doing it. Why does she have to be all condescending and know-it-all under the pretense of “I’m just trying to help.” Did I ask for help? No. Do I need her help? No. She thinks I do. And in my mind, that is the same as stating for all to see that I’m a failure because I am not doing it the way she thinks I should.
Who is “she?” One might ask. Does it matter? There is always “someone.” Am I really all that bad? or do the voices in my head just tell me I am. If so, why can’t those same said voices tell me to stand up for myself. Tell me to be proud and strong of who I am and what I accomplish. I’m not much, and I do even less. But I “am”; therefore, should I not be? Why can’t those voices stand up for me… instead of against me.

No. You aren’t. And neither is “she”. Aren’t we all imperfect beings just attempting to be our best selves?
