The things we do to be wanted :/

We've all been there and don't sit there and shake your head like your perfect because you know that you are not.

We have all fallen victim to doing anything and everything to be wanted by those around us "the in crowd" or the "cool kids" that could earn you some bogus status that others honor. Well, you know what its all crap.

I've tried my hardest in the past to be noticed not by boys who might have thought I was a pretty face but by anyone willing to talk to me and listen to what I said. Even to this day, I find myself unknowingly trying to locate the attention.

Don't feel bad, we all need attention, do not say you don't because we all do its a part of our written biology we are programmed to be social and crave the attention, for someone to notice us, in any way is important and gives us that "feel good."
Is there a point where it's pushed too far, and we become labeled from this crave, selfish, attention whore. Yes there is.
Oh.. Yeah, I said that because girls I have known growing up have been branded with that label for years. We want to be wanted, but we are judged for it.?? In what way is that right.

I have bent over backward for people I thought were my friends, I've been used and walked over until I grew up and my backbone became stronger, and I took control and realized that these people were only around me for their personal gain. ( Not in my best interest)

Okay, the moral of this not so great written post is to tell you to be yourself!. Well duh because you are awesome being the true you and also not to fight for "friends". The actual ones will find you, and you'll be glad you waited. Life is not one big race that we need to beat others in. It's about enjoying what we have and all the people that appreciate us and love us unconditionally.



Thanks,
Maddie.

Just A Stay At Home?

I know what you guys are thinking! oh no she's not actually doing it. Shocker, Yes, I'm writing about being a mom. To even it out a stay at home parent. Haha. Did I catch you there, this isn't just to you females that don't break even for that 24/7 job that pays zero. I have to give attention where attention is due because a stay at home Dad?.. Yeah, that a thing too. Props to you daddies that do it! Alot of the time, well lets face it ALL of the time stay at home parents are underestimated and taken for granted because Hello, What do they do all day? Do you really want to know? The list is comprised of over 5,000 things. Oh yes, not an exaggeration either. There are the chores of the house, the dealings with the child/children. We all know how demanding they are. You can't go two seconds without being sucked back to a child's needs. When they start to crawl even walk. The Race is on, the great escape more like it. Once they can walk, they will be running fro...

Whispers To You

Shh. Do you hear that? Make sure you are listening in close, I'm only going to repeat this once. I'm saying this hushed now because its a secret and I only want you to know. Do you know why? Because you are the person I hold close, the one that I want to share things with. I know you won't tell a soul because if you did, you would betray my trust and once its gone you cannot get it back.  Did you get it? Did you hear my message clearly. Please nod if you understand. I have a fear that what I say might scare you away. I only want to be honest with you. Know that my intentions are pure . I only mean to make you see,  to understand the voices in my head. The ones that scream at me, I know that you cannot physically hear them but I would like for you to know what they say. The dark things they tell me to do. The desperation in their voices when I fight back. Its consuming me.  Please don't turn away, like I'm a freak, I'm only human and I cannot help...
