And Th-Th-Th-That Don't Kill Me

Everyone says "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." or whatever the quote is. I think I'm basically the opposite. I'm a pretty tough cookie when it comes to pain, but when people talk about me or say something mean to my face, I get pretty upset. Either I cry, or I get really pissed. I don't really know what is wrong with me. All my friends say, "It doesn't matter what people say about you." but I don't really believe them. I take what people say about me or to me to heart. I think that goes along with my low self esteem or whatever it is. I need to work on that a bit.

I'm not saying people talk crap about me or anything, because I'm a good person for the most part. I'm contradicting myself now when I say talking crap is a bad thing, because I just said in my last post that I like talking about people, if it's true of course. I'm also contradicting myself when I say it shouldn't matter what people say about you. I tell myself that all the time, but it still matters to me no matter what. You should do what you want to do, wear what you want to wear, say what you want to say, (to a certain extent of course).

All of this reminds me of the song "Stronger" by Kanye West. I'm sure that'll always be a good song. It really connects well with what I'm saying in this post. Should I post a video or link? Of course I should!
