Super-Hero in a dangerous world

Sometimes I feel like i am a super-hero. No. I don't sit and say "Hey, Ijay! You're a super-hero". Here's what I mean; sometimes, I take on a magnitude of work school and otherwise that is impossible to attain given that there are only 24 hours  in a day, 7 days in a week, and 365/366 days in a year. It is IMPOSSIBLE. But somewhere mine-deep in my sub-conscious, I must imagine that I AM a super-hero to make the promises I make. And I hate to disappoint people, I'd rather lose sleep and push myself to the extreme.
     No, no! Hold the applause, there's nothing noble about this. The truth is, sometimes, I CAN'T keep the promises. Like nothing can be done short of skinning myself and drying it to make kilishi (sorry...very gross comparison haha). But you get my drift. So in the end, life may have really been better if I just said, 'Umm..actually, I can't'.

    I know where I get it from, (now the blaming starts). It's from my dad. My brother has it too! Call it our tragic flaw...Achilles heel if you must. All we want is for people to be happy. Like that's genuinely what we want. We just fail to realize that, sometimes, we are not the INSTRUMENTS for the job. Thank goodness for people like my Mum and Two sisters who keep us grounded.

Doesn't it suck to know something you persistently do wrong and need to stop. Who said rehab is only for celebrities and drugs and alcohol?

I blame it partially on the turban-styled scarf I rocked to school some days ago. I kinda look like a female 'Hellboy'....lol... With one shaved-off horn... My sister said I looked like a Sultan and I took it as a compliment. It is mostly Sultans that tie turbans so wooooooh!!

I'm so excited it's thursday....Weekend to do work free of classes

Be safe! Tie a Turban - Express your inner Sultan :-D


Yours Truantly,
Ij

with any so-called tragic flaw, the secret is knowing how to channel the 'tragic trait' to more positive outcomes. it is doable. it just requires effort

and i see you chilling out waiting for that OC transpo; get it girl :)

That is a wonderful personality trait, you just want people to be happy. Life doesn't go that way my dear. You can't please everyone.

Happy new year!!

i guess we all have our moments where we want to always help and feel like people can rely on us and most times at our own expense....
