I'm a Heartless Bitch because I'm independent, use my brain as well
as I can, and always value myself. I have a very strong drive to nurture and
help others, but that doesn't mean I'm going to let anyone get in the way of my
happiness. Even in my weakest, dumbest and most confused moments I have a core
of steely self-protection, and I've been that way all my life.
I've also always been an independent thinker, and I don't keep quiet about
whatever I happen to be independently thinking about. If I see something I think
is wrong I try to do something about it. If I'm wrong, I accept it - I think
that's far stronger than trying to hide my weaknesses. I question everything. I
have a whole lot to learn, but that's something I embrace and try to get on
with. At 21 I'm more able than I've ever been before to accept my mistakes and
store away the knowledge they give me. A year after my father's death I am
stronger and more confident than ever. Of course I still feel it, but I don't
look at the wounds as something to sit down and nurse. I just have to carry on -
what else am I going to do?
In your time on earth the only person you can rely on to be there for you
is yourself, and I'm glad that the shit I've had so far in my life means I've
learned that sooner rather than later. I'm sick of whiners ... I think everyone
has something a bit screwy inside them that hurts, but you just have to keep
moving on a day at a time and get on with it. There's a whole damn life out
there and you might as well make the best of it.
