resiliency is an important characteristic for the emotional state of mind. i'd have to question the abundance of mine over the last 10-15 years. it can be rather difficult depending on the level of adversity faced & the support systems that do or do not exist.
my support systems have been consistently, relatively non-existent over the course of my life thus far. sadly, reflection indicates that too often i relied on non-supportive relationships during times of truly strenuous personal adversity.
it is not a good indicator when you put individuals in places where they do not belong in your support structure simply because there is no one else to fill those gaps. being aware of this behavior is clearly essential in defeating its negative consequences.
i've only begun to truly respect this social misstep for its utterly horrible potential over the last 5-6 years. for those who have great support structures w/sincere individuals, that's great. be aware & appreciate that shit. for those of us surrounded by slackers & jackers, watch your back & be your own support.
fuck it. if you do not believe in you, no one else will really give a fuck. honestly, it isn't really anyone else's job anyway. why beat yourself up when you fuck up? the world will do it for you, even when you don't fuck up. a fuck up is ultimately a lesson if it is interpreted in any healthy way. even the worst fuck up is the basis of some important life lesson. the ability to appreciate such an approach to life is the difference between wisdom & folly...
make like i'm not a Pittsburgh fan...
PEACE
...be calm...
