My resolution

I feel like it's the new fad to be really deep and philosophical but at the same time cynical and depressing. I feel like it's 'cool' to be , like people who are pessimistic are oh so much more enlightened that then rest of us. I feel like people who aren't really that deep or that resilient admire those qualities in other people, but don't realize the hardship that so many of them endured that grew their resilience. I guess, I admire people of strong character as much as everyone does. But, for my own sake, I have to remind myself that playing the victim isn't as glamorous as I'd like to think.

I'm done playing the victim.
I'm done putting up the happy facade.
It's a fine line, but I'm determined to follow it.

I want to be known as the girl who took the hand she was dealt and played the best damn game you've ever seen.
