I like myself just the way I am

I have always accepted what I was given instead of waiting for what I wanted. I never spoke up , I just kept all my disappointment and hurt feelings inside.

It's easier and quicker to just take what you can get , when you can get it. Settling is always quicker , but never better than waiting. In fact my impatience caused me a lot of disappointment. It also caused a lot of heartache and tears.

Now I am on a new path to self discovery. I am alone, by choice and I am quite content to be that way . I know that until I can have the self confidence to say "I like myself just the way I am" I have no business even dating. I have a long way to go before I get to where I need to be. Settling is "NOT" an option this time around.
