I Deserve Better Than That

I had someone tell me tonight that I am mean and rude. Someone who calls themselves my friend. This same person tried to suggest that I am a psychobaby, as well. A year ago, hell even six months ago, this would have devastated me. Now? I talked with someone I KNOW cares about me, and while the words spoken earlier hurt, this friend helped me find perspective, and helped me let it go.

See, I deserve better than someone trying to stick me in a convenient box and label me incorrectly. I deserve the friend who lifts me up, who helps me be strong, who tells me, "You do deserve better," even in the moments when I flounder. I deserve happiness, and that is what I shall have.

Mine ... mine ... mine.
