Who am I?

Today I was watching one of my favorite shows in the world, One Tree Hill. Now I am going to give you a minute to laugh at me or to shake your head like "yeah thats a good show".............................................................Ok, we are now on the same level. So I truly believe that these characters are real people and the things they say can really make a difference in y our life. Today, Mouth, the perfect boy next door who is so caring makes you think, where the men are in this world that are like him? The boy who likes you for you and who only cares about what is inside your heart. Which brings me to why I am talking about Mouth. There is a girl named Rachel who is a complete bitch (for lack of better words). When she was in middle school and freshman year she was a "fat girl." She hated herself, so she got plastic surgery done. Boobs, stomach stapled, nose job, the works. When Mouth found out about this, he told her "I wish I would have known that girl because I could have loved her, why did you change her? Do you still walk down the halls and want to be accepted? Nothing has changed, just your looks." WHERE ARE THESE MEN! So sweet. But I am not really interested in the man of this situation, I am interested in Rachel and her views of who she is and what she wanted to change.

So, Who are you? Who am I? Well, my name is Jamie Marie and according to some of my friends, I am a "neurotic hot mess." I wear my heart on my sleeve and hate telling the hard truth because I don't want to hurt other people. I am VERY blunt in certain situations and I have an opinion on EVERYTHING. I can be forward, and I can be shy. I can drink like a fish and party all night or I can stay in and watch movies on a Saturday night. I am adaptable to situations so much as to live in the ghetto of Cincinnati to the upscale CEOs of Dayton. I have a huge, loud mouth and I am not afraid to use it. I tend to spill more info than needed, but I can sometimes keep secrets, it depends. I can look in the mirror sometimes and hate myself for being a size 14, but other days I can look at myself and say "Damn, looking good!" I would love to be a size 4, but with a big ass, I can loose all I want in the stomach but my pant size isnt' going to change very much. Sure there are lots of things I would love to change about myself, but if you can't accept who you are, and embrace it, life will pass you by. Look at the positive, see the good in yourself, not just the bad.

So who are you? What are your likes and dislikes? What are your fears? These are the questions we must ask ourselves daily, but not just that, we must ask the hard ones. What is it you like about yourself (physical appearance)? What about something you like about your personality? I know you know the negatives about yourself, that is human, but what about the positive. Figure out who you are as a person and be that. If you don't like the direction you are heading, or who you are, change it. It is NEVER too late to make a change. Be who you want to be one step at a time. Just remember, everyone is beautiful in their own way, everyone is loved and cared about by someone. You may not see that everyday, but believe it, you are loved no matter what you look like, so be who you are and embrace that person.
