Everyone Needs Hugs

Well, it's the end of the week! I hope everyone was ready for it! I know I was. Tomorrow starts picture week, just so everyone knows! I'm excited for it. Today is day 2 of recovering from the removal of my wisdom teeth. I am in a lot of pain so please pardon me if I am short or not as deep as I normally am. If you think I am normally deep in what I say.

I think the reason that I am so strong is because of the lack of sympathy that my parents would give me throughout my life. You know when you would fall and scrape your knee as a kid. What would your parents say to you? If they said "Awww you poor baby, you should come inside so you don't get hurt again." then you are probably kinda wimpy now. But if your parents said something like "You are fine, just keep on playing." Then you are probably pretty tough. Well, my parents still seem to not give me much sympathy. I think that is why I choose to not tell them my problems. Most of the time growing up I would hear something like, you can handle it, or its not a big deal. Unless something was seriously wrong with me, like when I smashed my head into the concrete I was according to them "fine." Even when I got a concussion in a basketball game this past year, I didn't go to the doctor until 3 days later. And even then I had to convince them that I really had a concussion and needed to see a doctor. They said I had a concussion for sure, and I was out of school for a week, because I wasn't allowed to do anything. I was right! I am tough, and most people are tough, they grew up the same way I did. But sometimes we need some sympathy, and some compassion. Every once in awhile we need someone to feel sorry for us, to take pity on us. It's the tough ones, that when they actually show pain, or look down or something, its then that they need comforting the most, because you should know that they are really hurting.

I don't know where all of that came from. But all you tough guys and strong girls, it's ok to say every once in awhile that you need a hug. Because everyone needs hugs.
