FOLLOWING MY OWN ADVICE

Lately I'd been having problems with a girl who was supposed to be a friend. Well, she'd been very self-centered and called herself trying to change me. She'd touched my stuff without asking me and then tried to take credit for words that were mine. She'd been pushing my buttons for a while, but the last and final time was when she called me with mess right as I was getting out of church. I was still in the church parking lot. I hung up the phone on her because she was getting on my nerves.

At one point in time I would have been nice and let her walk over me, but a lot of situations have happened in my life to the point where I cannot allow that now. Even more I have a friend (we've been friends since we were 9 years old. We grew up in the church together. She'd been having problems with one of her roommates for a little while. My advice to her was to not let her roommate take advantage of herself. I'd been through the drama so I wanted to see my friend stand up for herself.

Looking at her situation and all I had been threw I was not going to let this girl take advantage of me. I was not going to fall into the trap of letting someone else control my life. I decided to follow my own advice.

To everyone out their follow your own advice. Don't let someone else control your life. Do what makes you happy.
