Just Dance

This week I realized what it really means to stand up and to be true to myself! This week I experienced a 7 to one verbal attack when I had least expected it! I went into the evening prepared with exactly what I wanted to say and accomplish, but unfortunately it was a one way conversation, more like a monologue in front of twenty people. Leaving the room thinking it was a waste of everyone's time, I went ahead and did my job, the job I came there to do. The laughter and fun came to a screeching halt, when he came down and told me they wanted to talk to me. I walked in and shut the door and said,"OK what's up?", then it started. I tried to remain as composed as possible, I had no clue how to react. I felt I had to yet again prove myself to these people who have been after me since I started. On what foundation have I been accused of being this horrible person? Lies, all lies! How boring is your life that you need to make up lies and half truths to make yourself look better. The tears were flowing on the other end, but what were the tears coming from? Lies. Once the yelling and attempt to break my spirit stopped I excused myself, I was DONE! Done dealing with people who just don't get it! I walked to my Jeep and fought to hold back the tears, I called my Best Friend, My Husband. He helped me calm myself and make it home safely. Here I am three days later, involuntarily playing back the horrible things that were said. Where do I go from here? As long as I could remember I have always been misunderstood. People trying to mold this person they think I should be...guess what I am loud, I say things I shouldn't, I like to laugh, I love to have fun, and I will not continue to be attacked!........JUST DANCE
