sometimes i'm reminded...

there are days that i'm continually reminded that i'm different. i mean, i believe we all are to an extent. we all were raised different, have different attitudes and opinions, and have different ways of seeing the same exact things. i was raised in a rather sheltered, very conservative home. i was the kid in middle school that never knew what any one was talking about because i was rather naive. but i would laugh like i knew what was going on because i didn't want to be that girl.

and today for the first time ever, i realized that i'm glad i was raised the way i was. i don't agree with everything that happened but i am who i am today because of it and maybe a little in spite of it too :)

i've worked hard to get where i am. but i was reminded today that i'm different. and hopefully, it's because of WHO is living in me and not because i'm actually weird.
