Thursday, October 16, 2008 @ Who am i?
So over the course of my 22 years on the place called earth, Ive been called more than a few choice words....kinda of basically adding up to misunderstood, which i can live with b/c i really think I'm not like anybody else out there....of course I'm not...I'm ME....built like no one else....but yet not on any cocky, I'm the shit bitch type mess.

by me saying I'm like no other is b/c i tend to look at things a lil bit different than the average person. maybe it was from how i was raised or just how i carried myself. some folks tend to over react to certain situations where as i, instead of looking at all the bad in it, try and find some good.
yeah i know whoever reads this is probably gonna say "don't everybody try to do that tho?". well if you know me well enough and we're cool like that. if you ever came to me with a problem that seemed bad, then you know i always tried to see the lighter side of it and take your mind off the darker side to it.

but anyway....some folks seem to move at the speed of light to me...always on the go, here and there, things to do, people to see. well, not really my type of vibe. I'm real laid back and easy going. an old supervisor of mines (rest her soul) used to say when i walked it was almost like i was gliding lol, never in a rush. and that's b/c i never really am. id rather take my time in anything than to rush thru it. i wanna enjoy it and savor it and if its time, snap a few pics to preserve the memories. so can that be a bad thing? i don't know you tell me.

i guess you can say I'm Conservative too. i really don't like putting my two cents into alotta things b/c i guess its my fault if i don't know the subject at hand too well, or i just cant relate to it. I've tried in the past to put one foot out there but it just got ran over. which brings me back to the misunderstood part. yeah i say alot of shit some may not get. i wouldn't expect em to anyway. i tend to speak sometimes without thinking unless otherwise. that can be a bad thing yes but its just the way i am. i don't do it as much anymore compared to a few yrs back.

i may come off to some people as quiet...anti-social...maybe even a lil slow. cant blame em b/c that's how i put it out there, until you actually get to know me, or maybe just one day out the blue i say something that changes your whole perspective on it, then yeah....i do have some book smarts in me. its just not visible as much as some folks.

but overall, who am i? ill leave that up to you the reader. there was a point in my life where words would get under my skin. someone can actually vouch for that but now, i try to treat myself like a positive magnet and let them negative talk just bounce off me. I'm getting better at it each day but not where i wanna be at yet.

i mean after all, they're just words....cant do any harm until you take it a step further and get physical....but yeah...folks gonna talk about you til the day you die and life's way too short to be worry about it (cliche i know). but I'm thankful for the folks that i know who put up with me and see me as that "southern gentleman" as my blog title suggests. but like i said, ill leave it up to you to tell me who i am. I'm always up for improvement :-)
