another kind of love
Here i'm just got off the chat with my sister after another argument. And i realize i'm free of her!
Why so you ask?
First of all, for all the 18 years i've lived with my sister, i cant count how many times my sister said i'm stupid and i make her feel embrassed.
For example, last year, when i came back my country, my sister took me to her boss's house. I saw an empty aquarium (with water inside). I told her boss's wife: "why dont you have some fishes inside? It would prevent mosquitos". Her boss's wife smille and said she will.
When we were alone after that, my sister told me: "why are you so stupid, why did you say that, of course they know how to take care of their house. You dont have to teach them. I'm so embrassed".
Just something like that and i got scolded. No wonder y i'm a social withdrawal kind of person. Because i got scold for saying anything at all. I'm always worry if i said anything worng to people and that's y. She makes me feel insecure
And we just argued again, my sister said to send any money i have back and only keep the bare minimum for myself. If i need anything, i can withdraw the money from her credit card.
So what's the point of sending her the money, got the transfer money charge and then got it again when i try to withdraw it? To make my sister have a sense of controlling over people? And my sister is the kind of person that tolf my mother to butt off of her money spending... Now she's trying to control my everything, always asking where my money goes.
I know her life is crappy. But that doesnt mean she could trample on me just to feel better.
And suddenly, it hits me. I'm free from her. What every she said in chat room, i could just turn the chat off. If she calling me, i could turn off my cell phone. What else can she does? fly to where i am just to control me?
From now on, i dont have to take the crap from her anymore. I have what it takes to listen to her when i feel like so and stop listen to her when i dont want it. I AM FREE everyone!!!!
keep it simple
Self-esteem isn't bragging about how great you are. It's more like quietly knowing that you're worth a lot (priceless, in fact!). It's not about thinking you're perfect — because nobody is — but knowing that you're worthy of being loved and accepted.
"Me, I try to send this note
float it like a paper boat
But paper sinks
and words are weak
i try, but i cant speak"
