Anger Is Overrated

Garret keeps telling me that I need to let my anger at Tim and Amy go. He is right. There is no good reason to hold on to it. But I have been angry for a very long time. The other day I think I realized why. I am very tired of letting people tell me that I am not good enough. I think I am angry not because Amy makes me feel like I'm not good enough but because sometimes I believe it. But I'm done with that. Garret is right. I need to let go of some of this anger. I'm good enough. I have proven it and I continue to prove it every day of my life. I have overcome enough in my life to know that. I come from a family without college graduates. family with few high school graduates. And yet here I am. I have graduated high school and I am attending college. I have been successful. I am halfway through my third year. I get good grades and I love what I am studying. I am a good person. Despite my feelings of anger I didn't act on them. Over and over again I had opportunities to act on my anger and I didn't. I had help of course but I did it. There weren't always other people around. I could have acted on them. I am a good friend to the people in my life who mean something to me. I have a boyfriend who loves me. I have a successful relationship.

I am beautiful, I am compassionate, I am intelligent, I am passionate. I am a good teacher, a good student, a good daughter, a good sister, a good friend, a good girlfriend and a good person.

I am enough. I will not let anyone tell me I'm not anymore. I will not let anyone make me believe I am not good enough ever again.
