I hate the way I am...


I hate..
That I’m not aggressive..
I hate..that I wish I was..
I hate that I procrastinate..
I hate not accomplishing..
I hate that I feel the need to..
I love that theres always a tomorrow
I hate that one day there won’t be..

I feel for you.
I sometimes hate me being me, then I realize it takes away to much energy. Energy I can use to o startlearninghow I am and how I can help myself become the person I wold like to be.

I wishyou a better day.

Hate is a strong word, my son.

Well, when everyone around you expects you to be aggressive, it's kinda hard not to want to be, but believe me, you're better off for it.

Why do you hate the feeling of a need to accomplish? That's innate. We're supposed to want to accomplish.

Ah, but you never know when that tomorrow won't be. There's always tomorrow to change, but no time like the present to LIVE, to BE.

I admire the general contentedness you have in life, but it must be hard when you feel this tugging feeling deep inside that disturbs you.
While I think it's great that you are generally content and happy and easy going.. it's a pleasant personality to have..
I believe these feelings you are having are messages you should listen to quietly. Don't fight them. Find a peaceful place and listen to them.
Don't try to figure out the answers right away, don't condemn yourself, don't condemn others or condemn circumstances. Just listen. Someone important is talking - namely .. you.. Listen.

You hate??
This is who you are...this is you.
All of those things you are not, that you wish you were, are a part of what makes you the person you are.
If you were all those things, you wouldn't be you.
Wouldn't that be a shame?

remember love and hate are the same emotion. When you write you love "that there's always tommorrow" gives a wonderful contrast to rest of the post. BTW I feel the same way!

I figure my last comment was tacky, although true, so I'll just say, please, chin up. We all have our moments of self doubt, and they come and go like the seasons, only more often. *hugs*

... don't we all?
judge ourselves,
resist that judgment,
judge out resistance...

just be.
let yourself be.
accept your being, your whole being, your vices, your wishes... even your self-loathing.
and be a little compassionate... the same way you'd be if someone you loved & respected deeply told you that they felt very badly about themselves- because of the things that you know makes them such a beautiful person.
be that compassionate... to you.

brrrr... what a post.
I think we all have those times. I'm not worried about you, especially after those last two lines.

Chaverah -- I hate when people say that. I don't think Love and Hate are even opposites on the same continuum, let alone actually being the same emotion.

Someone once told me that the first rule to longlasting happiness is to love oneself unconditionally.
But how far we are from that.

It's the worst feeling to feel you don't like yourself, usually moods change the way you feel about yourself.
