One More Step

by PrincessQ on 2009/07/07

I’m at a place where I feel like I should…evaluate? Think? Know? Myself. So with that in mind…this is inspired by Brandy’s post a while ago…I’ve been meaning to do this and tonight just felt right.

“Leave those bags behind, and hope they stay lost before you get to your next destination. All right, take few souvenirs if you must, but just nice stuff. No junk.” – Michael Rawls

I can’t…

*Whistle
*Do a cartwheel
*Sleep with a cat on my face
*…or at all.
*Fit into the new jeans I bought
*Look up when I’m higher than the ground. (Afraid of heights)

I can..

*Be a great friend
*Make people laugh
*Write through the pain
*Keep trying
*Climb on roofs even when I’m afraid of heights.
*Go through books like my life depends on it.
*Appreciate It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
*Speak fluent That’s What She Said

I won’t…

*Settle
*Drink straight out of the milk carton
*Take food off your plate without asking
*Lead you on
*Buy Starbucks for the next 7 days.

I will…

*Always say what’s on my mind, no matter what.
*Start going to the gym.
*Spend more time on ME.
*Take care of myself and go to the doctor.
*Always be there for my friends.
*Take food off your plate.
*Go see the monuments at night with the girls
*Remember to smile everyday.

I shouldn’t…

*Let the pain linger.
*Hold on to the unworthy.
*Give up.
*Stay up so late.
*Feel so guilty about living my life.
*Eat shitty.
*Ever…EVER change who I am because people are too chickenshit to appreciate it.
*Be bitter because of the ones who hurt me.

I should…

*Sleep more.
*Email Jackie
*Keep looking.
*Let go of the pain.
*Eat more veggies.
*Drink more water.
*Keep loving. Living. Climbing.
*Look into free classes at the gym.
*Read more blogs.
*Be more positive.
*Remember to breathe.

Your turn. I want you to give me at least one from each column in the comments…

“I can’t… but I can…
I won’t…but I will…
I shouldn’t…but I should”

I can’t whistle or cartwheel either…
I can read a bizzilion books because my life does depend on it.
I won’t settle in this job…
I will expand my horizions and stretch my boundaries.
I shouldn’t stay up so late and drink so much Pepsi…
I shall start working out, lose weight, and go back to drinking water again.

I can’t sit through a scary movie.

I can hold grudges if I am pushed that far.

I won’t lie to get ahead.

I will remind myself of all of the positive things that I love about me.

I shouldn’t eat these M&M’s

I should go to bed.

Offhand,

I can’t… read sheet music
but I can… play just about anything by ear if I want to
I won’t… singlehandedly keep a relationship alive
but I will… drop everything and go anywhere to be there for someone I care about
I shouldn’t… chain myself to the scale
but I should… exercise to take care of my body

I love this post topic, so glad you did it! I can’t do a cartwheel either, but can execute and elegant somersault on demand. AND ALSO go through books like my life depends on it! Good luck with all your goals!

I whistle like a loser. I suck at it. We weren’t allowed to whistle in the house as kids — an unbelievably ridiculous rule. But now it means I don’t know how; I never learned.

I can’t get over the pain of my past, no matter how hard I try

but I can be strong and remember it makes me a better person

I won’t be fake, ever. If you don’t like me, fuck you.

but I will love all my friends dearly who accept me for who I am

I shouldn’t be so wasteful with money

but I should have some more coffee…

I can’t… strike up a conversation with someone I’ve never met
but I can… talk forever with anyone I know
I won’t… ever take Walter for granted again
but I will… cherish every moment with him for the rest of my life
I shouldn’t… always overcompensate for everyone else
but I should… eat healthier than I’ve been eating

hmmm…

I can’t always be cheerful, but I can still be pleasant to everyone around me.

I won’t settle, but I will go out on a lot of first dates, even if i’m skeptical of it ever working.

I shouldn’t drink quiiiite so much wine, but I should play piano more.

I love this. I did a mini eval when I turned 25 and it surprised me. Out of no where I felt reassured. I didn’t think I needed that.

What a great idea.

I can’t do a cartwheel (stole yours, yes, but I can’t either and it sucks). I can be a good listener.
I won’t change who I am for someone. I will bend over backwards for someone I love.
I shouldn’t eat so much junk food/drink so much soda. I should stick to my gym committment.

I can’t bear tourists near the zoo.

I can watch marathons of “Law & Order: SVU” like it’s my job.

I won’t let myself get wrapped up in worrying about whether this boy likes me.

I will unpack. Soon. Maybe.

I shouldn’t worry so much about finding a guy.

I should stop buying ice cream.
