Stuff I do not put up with anymore
I only wear underwear that is comfortable. I do not wear underwear that rides up. I just do not care that skinny models in magazines try to convince me to buy things that aren't comfortable. Clothes should be comfortable. I will not put up with otherwise!
I can only deal in the truth. What I mean is that, I no longer believe that I am preserving your feelings by lying to you. I certainly do not think anyone should be rude, but I strive to always be honest. I appreciate honesty especially when it keeps me from smiling all day long with spinach in my teeth. I realize that I do not have time to sift through platitudes, white lies, uncomfortable smiles to get to the truth.
I finally reject regret. That goes with telling the truth. You tell the truth by living it. I try to never hold back. I love fiercely and foolishly. I blunder, and I realize that I will continue until I die to blunder. If I avoid blunders I can be safe, but I can also miss out on all the mystery and wonder that this world has to offer. I cannot live with regret. I need to know that I have actually said my piece. I need to know that I acted courageously throughout my life when I come before the Great Judgment Seat of Christ.
I do not have time anymore for relationship games, double speak, or toying with another’s emotions. Relationships are central to life. I cannot attempt to control another through manipulation or emotional terrorism. I do not need a slave. I need a friend. I need to know that I can trust you, and you can trust me. I am all for flirting, but not if the motivation is unclear. Flirting is for showing affection. I am trying to live my life more honestly. Frankly, I just do not have time for you to toy with my emotions. Tell me the truth: Do you love me? Do you want to be friends? Are you unsure but you like spending time together? I can deal with that, but I cannot deal with mixed messages and no communication.
Finally, I do not put up with uncomfortable shoes. I have people to see. I need to be able to walk. I do not want squished toes. It makes me grimace and unable to focus on what I need to focus on. I also will not put up with ugly shoes. I know that comfort and fashion meet but it is on a very expensive street. I am willing to go there.
So, what do you not put up with anymore?
