Diary of a Wimpy Adult

There is a long list as to why I call myself a “Wimpy Adult”. For one, I live on my own, but yet I was unprepared for the big world. I had been connived by people, abused, taken advantage of by others. I left home to care for my father when I was 20 years old. 5 months later, he had passed, leaving behind 30+ years worth of hoarding for me to pick up in a 2 bedroom apartment. This was the place I was raised in, now I had to make it my home. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the idea of being on my own. No one told you what you can or can’t do, come home at whatever time, and no one was the authority over you except for the law. So for the most part it was nice… until “friends” became snakes and eventually your enemies. Could there had been things I could have done to prevent it? Absolutely. Did I act on it? No. Why? I was ” The Nice Guy” and bent over backwards to people who didn’t deserve it. I let people jade me while they hid behind their masks, and there are still people who think that they have me fooled. (With that said, I must admit that I now know everything on everyone who were involved with me last year.) Another thing that I wasn’t ready for was the responsibility of paying bills. Wow was that a bummer every month. I feel like I got short changed by the end of the month. Not being able to go out as often though, showed me the responsibilty to conserve and have a tighter grip on my money situation. Soon enough, my wife and I will be comfortable enough financially to be going out as often as we use to hopefully. Now that I have my life straightened out and my wife on my side I now gained so much more confidence with myself and life in general. Before when there was ever a problem I would never speak up and say anything, and that’s what I thought brought me down, you know just leaving situations the and never saying anything. It’s stressful nothing you say what you want to assume you have in mind for yourself but you feel like you hurt the other person. Now there’s no mercy, I speak my mind, I say what’s up, if I don’t like something now I say something straight up. The best thing you have yourself as an adult your voice. Use it you’re not that’s not you use your voice say something for something wrong. Let me refer to CM Punk, the voice of the voiceless and using a microphone as his pipe bomb. your words, are words of mass destruction, and the your pen is the sword and your voice is the dynamite, and a microphone can be used just like a pipe bomb. Take it from me life, isn’t easy but if you take the steps accordingly, and follow them correctly, you can get to where you wanna be. And that’s why I call myself a wimpy adult because I use to let this happen to me now I surround myself with the right people and take the right steps and do the right thing. Following what’s in your heart and your mind is what you have to do. Follow your instincts. have no fear. And you won’t be wimpy as you use to be.
