my dad is amazing

so my dad found an old journal of his from 5 years before i was born and i asked if i could read it. there is so much cool stuff in it and im learning a lot about him.


"it is never my responsibility to-
give something that i really dont want to give
sacrifice my integrity to anyone
do mare than i have time to do
drain my strength for others
listen to unwise counsel
retain an unfair relationship
be anyone but exactly who i am
conform to unreasonable demands
be 100% perfect
follow the crowds
put up with unpleasant people
bear the burden of anothers misbehavior
do something i cant really do
endure my own negative thoughts
feel guilty to my own inner desires
submit to over bearing conditions"

sounds like a good way to live
