don't hold my words against me.

some days I want to work out
and
some days I want to lay around
and
watch way too much TV.

I want to learn to knit.
I want to master the art of photography.
I want to work out consistently.
I want to be lazy.
I want to be a nutritious snob.
I want to eat cheap, not healthy.
I want to earn a lot of money.
I want to experience sacrifice.
I want to fight to the death.
I want to give up.

Some people feel that this sort of non-sense is

wishy-washy.

This is me.

If I say I want to do something
I want to do it.

I might not ever follow through.
I might change my mind.
I might feel like I'm going to fail.
I might be scared to tell you I don't know.
I might hate you if you pressure me.
I might break down in tears.
I might give up.

This is me.

I will overcome.
I will live life.
I will be better than your expectations of me.
I will come out stronger.
I will fight harder.
I will show you that I can do anything.
I will pursue greatness.
I will surpass your limits on me.

But if I don't.

Will you love me?
Will you think I'm good enough?
Will you value my existence over my achievements?
Will you ensure I survive?
Will you follow through with your promises?
Will you never leave?

Whatever you do.

Please.

Don't hold.

my words.

against me.
