I'm Not Sorry For Doing What Is Best For Me

I choose who I am, and I'm not sorry.

I'm Not Sorry For Doing What Is Best For Me
Kaylee Gates

I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry for being me. I'm not sorry for making the decisions to get to where I am today. I'm not sorry. But let me tell you, I do apologize when I am in the wrong. And I will admit when I'm wrong. But what I won't apologize for is being me.

I'm not sorry for being too nice

I'm the type of person that will give second, third, fourth, and fifth chances. I like to believe in the good in humanity. And in a world full of evil, I like to believe that everyone has good in them.

I'm not sorry for liking children more than adults

I would rather spend my day with a room full of children than a room full of adults. Want to know why? Because they are innocent. Those children believe in fairy tales, happily ever after, and everyone being a good guy. I would rather spend my day helping those kids believe in the magic versus the adults who know the evils of the world.

I'm not sorry for believing in Happily Ever After

Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust. Disney teaches you that. It also teaches you about happily ever after. And guess what? I believe in that, too. However, happily ever after doesn't mean married and children. Happily Ever After, to me, means you're achieving the goals that you set and working towards completing the next goal.

I'm not sorry for leaving people behind

If they aren't helping to make me a better person, then I don't want them in my life. If they are putting me down or getting in the way of my dreams, then I definitely don't want them in my life. There are certain people in my life that I want in my life, and if someone doesn't fit that mold, I'm not sorry for cutting them off.

I'm not sorry for doing what is best for me

From moving out of state to working through school, I'm not sorry for doing what's best for me. Moving schools, changing majors, going out on the town, and staying in and watching Netflix--I am happy doing what is best for me.

I'm not sorry for doing what is best for me, and you shouldn't be sorry for doing what is best for you. Cut people out of your life, move states, change schools, believe in Happily Ever After. Do what is best for you, and the rest will fall into place.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
