CNA and all its glory

Just recently I got a job as a CNA, for those of you who don't know that means I'm a Certified Nursing Assistant. Basically I help people who need help with daily things. It's been a good experience for me so far. I've mostly learned that people aren't always what you would hope they would be. Not everyone cares for each other like they should. Some people just see it as a job and lose sight of why they started helping people in the first place and that breaks my heart. I've always wanted to work in a field where I get to help people and make a difference in someone's life, but I never knew it would be so frustrating at times. I thought  that everyone who would have a health career would care about people as much as I do, but that's not the case, some just care about the money the get. I guess what I'm saying is regardless if you work in health care, fast food, or don't have a job at all you should always treat people with respect and dignity. No one deserves to be treated badly, regardless of the situation. Always be the bigger person and stand up if you see someone treating others badly, because the person getting picked on could be you. Be a nice caring person even if sometimes you don't want to be. Because that person your picking on is someones mother, daughter, son, father, they are someone's somebody. If you want respect you have to give respect. We are all the same. We are equal. We need to start treating each other like we are. Don't lose sight of why you started doing something good, and turn it into evil. We need good people in the world, so why shouldn't it start with you? We all hear this stuff through school, work training, family, friends, but still there's always something bad to steer you astray from the good. Just sit down when you start to lose sight of things and remind yourself why your good. You'll get farther in life with kindness then you ever will with being evil.                                                        Just don't forget who you are and why your a good person. Stand strong for others when they can't stand for themselves, because one day you'll need someone to stand for you.

Frustration and Other Things...

Frustration. I feel that word a lot lately. It's like I'm not happy with the way things are going for me as of now. It's not how I planned in my head. Do you ever have that? A perfect image of how you want your life or the next few months of your life to turn out and then its not like that at all? I guess thats the downside of planning. Nothing turns out the way you think it should. I feel like I'm crumbling. Everything I worked so hard to get and keep together is falling apart slowly. I'm okay one second and then the next somethings changing and I feel my okayness slipping away. Is that a word, okayness? If not it should be. I just feel like I should stop trying so hard, like maybe if I let go things couldn't fall apart. I just wanna feel okay always, I wanna be happy with me and where I am at in life 24/7. Because the breakdowns are killing my soul. The reality of  people and the world not being what I thought it was sucks. I want to believe in goodness, true happiness, and making not only you but others happy. I don't think I have a selfish bone in my body and that makes it hard. I live in the shadows of others even though I was born to stand out. My boyfriend of almost two years told me he wants to join the military, wanna know what I said? I said do what makes you happy and what you feel like you have to do. To be honest though, I'm not sure thats how I was feeling. I wanted to cry. I felt like he doesn't care about the plans we have or what I want. He's okay with leaving me. The bad part is though, I didn't say any of that. I want him to be happy, screw how I feel. Is that right? I'm not so sure anymore... It's just hard to tell people how you feel when they will probably do what they want anyways. Either that or I'm to afraid of what he would say back to me....I'm never winning. I'm either speaking to much of my mind or not enough. Bottom line is I have to work on that. I'm sick of hurting for the sake of others. I'm sick of getting walked all over like the welcome matt on my front porch, but I just cant help but lay down if your feet are dirty.. it just eats me alive. Question is, when will I start living for me and standing up for what I want?..

Fam[ILY]

Today my post is about family. Now I've never had what you call a normal family, but who does? I like it that way. I have a large family, its very extended, and yes some of us don't see each other as often as we should, but the thing is I know all of them would be there in a heartbeat if I needed them. That's the thing about family, they love you regardless, mistakes, fights, no matter what. Families are strong that way. You don't have to see each other all the time to know how important you are to one another. You have some sort of bond, a closeness. You could do something terrible and they would still stand next to you and tell you how much you mean to them. What also makes a family great though, can also tear it apart. Families can be to forgiving, when sometimes you dont need forgiveness, you need tough love. Yes people make mistakes, but how many times should you forgive them for the same mistake is the question. Love for a family memeber can be overpowering. It can be so strong you'd put yourself in harms way to save them. So when does hurting yourself become to much to handle? The answer is probably never. That's the thing about Family, you can't give up on them no matter how bad you want to. You'll always want whats best for them and for them to be happy, and sometimes that means sacrifices. My father is a strong man who would sacrifice anything for his family, he can be grumpy at times and a little scary, but he does so much for his family. Thats the kind of family member people need, a strong one. You can be mad or dislike a family memeber but thats your family regardless. They are the ones who will be there for you when no one else is. Some people dont realize that until it's to late and thats very sad. I need to see my family more, I need to be there for them more when they need me because at the end of the day thats who I will turn to. Family is everything so dont give up on them regardless of how disfunctional, or wierd they are because one day they aren't gonna be there and your gonna wish you knew them better or spent more time with them. Just remember family is everything so take the time to show them that.

Choosing Choices.

Choices.....


Have you ever had to make a choice between two people you really love, or a choice over two different kinds of food that your in the mood for? Well, today my blog is about just that. Choices. I'm pretty sure we have all had to make a big choice sometime in our lives its just a matter of when that choice comes. Lately, I've been having to make a lot of them since I've turned 18, like where's it better to open an account at, a bank or credit union?, where do I wanna live?, where do I wanna go to collage? All sorts of big choices are coming up in my life and sometimes it gets stressful and hard. The amazing thing about choices though is that I have them. I have to be the one to make them, but they are there. I'm not forced into something, I can be whoever I want and make the choices I want. The tough thing about choices though, is what choice is best for you and whats the consequences of choosing it? Who's it gonna hurt? How many colories will you gain? What if you lose everything? Questions like that pop in your head and then you just confuse yourself. People always tell me "listen to your heart", but guess what? My heart doesn't tallk.  My choices come straight from my feelings and my head, but what if you don't know what your feeling? Then what? Choices have always been hard for me, I've always made someone else choose for me. If my boyfriend asks where I want to eat, I just say you choose. So when it comes down to it big choices are hard for me, I don't wanna make a mistake. I don't wanna let someone down. Or I just straight up dont wanna choose. Lately, I've been getting better at choices. This is my life, it's okay if I make a mistake, I'm living for me, I'm choosing for me. That sounds selfish, but when it comes down to it, who are you living for? You. I'm just saying if choices pop up choose them. If its hard, take some time to think and then choose them. Don't let someone else choose for you because at the end of the day, your the one who has to live and die with that choice. Choose the things that make you happy now, because in your future you'll look back and say you can't regret that choice because at one time it made you happy. Stand up and start choosing your choices for you do what makes you happy and the rest will follow.

Strength.

I haven't written in a while I've been caught up in new and exciting things. I got a job that I love and boy does it feel good! but thats not what I'm here to write about. Honestly, I have learned a lot in the past little bit, about me, what i can handle, and what I can't. I've realized that I could handle being alone being just me, but I'd rather not. I'm stronger than I'd like to think I am. See, being frail is a lot easier, I'd rather be broken and lean on someone than stand tall and fall hard. Well, I used to anyways. Now I wanna stand tall because I have a lot to stand for. Lately, I've been doing things for me instead of everyone else and it gives me a sense of inpowerment, of control. I have realized my life should be about me. Its mine. I see things in a different light and I dont know what turned it on in my head but I can feel it through my whole body. I'm sick of depending on someone and being let down. It's easier to let myself down and try again than it is to let other people let me down and break me. I'm not saying its not okay to let people in, Im just saying dont expect things from people. Don't put them to a higher standard if you dont see all of them clearly, dont expect the impossible, dont expect for them to change who they are. Just dont expect. Let them be them and fall for them for that reason. Love the mistakes, the sillyness, the crazyness about them because thats who they are. Just remember dont forget to love yourself. I seemed to have forgotten about that in my life. I was so busy worrying about others and looking at others that I forgot to examine me. I mean trully, look at yourself, examine your every emotion, look in the mirror and tell you that your okay loving yourself then maybe, just maybe you can look at someone and love them too. You should be just as important to yourself as someone else is to you. Just dont fall in love and forget who you are. dont be someone your not for someone else. just look at yourself, hold your head high through all the struggles and say I, I am the Bomb Dot Com.
