Victim

We like to play the victim; or I do at least. We like to say that we've gone through the worst and it becomes this nonsensical, unwritten argument about who's been through worse. We sit there and say how "I've got it bad" and nobody can relate and I am my own person because I can't trust anybody anymore. You go through a cycle of envy, then satisfaction (not because anything's changed but you've changed how you think) and it's pretty endless.

I play the victim a lot. I sit there and there say that nobody can understand me and I trust nobody because they all fail and boo hoo to me; while I see others who are surrounded by people and the support they have. I sit here and complain about how I'm going through this alone and there isn't anybody standing up for me like you do. I play the victim card all the time and I'm telling myself to stop being a wuss. Stop playing the helpless role. Stop blaming everything around you and everyone around you (or not around you) and pick yourself up.

So what if people come and go? Why do you define yourself in what you have? Why do you think that you don't have support and nobody's standing up for you? Stand up for yourself! Grow up a bit and stop having yourself a pity party because you know what? You're not going to get anything from it. Stop thinking so negative all the time and take everything for what it is. Enjoy the times you're surrounded and enjoy the times you're not. You can't have everything all the time, tis life. Just be happy and think simply. Don't complicate things beyond what's needed and c'est la vie. I'm not saying be careless and apathetic. I'm saying stop being a downer.
