spine

I need to grow a spine. Lately I've let myself be pressured and coerced by people. If I didn't want to do something I would do it anyway just so they wouldn't be upset with me. If I had something to say I wouldn't say it because it took too much effort or too many people would disagree with me.

But I miss doing what I want and not caring what people think.

Sometimes the not-caring-what-people-thing thing can be taken too far in either direction. We need to be sensitive to people but we also can't let others have the run of our lives.
