Mixed up

where do I start? What do I say? I have so much on my mind, but at the same time I don't what to say.  I feel like I have clarity in my life, and I am taking a chance to keep it. Life is such a funny thing and it just keeps throwing things at you until you can't take anymore. Thats when your family, and friends mean the most to you. Those are the times you have to stop and just take a minute for yourself.  I am personally just trying to follow my heart like I have always done, but as I get older I find it harder and harder to do. Others give me their opinions and advice, but I am stubborn and once I make up my mind it is hard to tell me otherwise. Oh and Just so world knows.....I have faith in people and I KNOW people make mistakes and mess up! IT'S WHAT MAKES US HUMAN!!!!!! But its those who are willing to swallow their pride and ask for forgiveness that make the difference. People deserve a second chance, because not everyone gets it right the first go round. I get so tired of telling people this, because I know so many people who are quick to make judgements about others without really knowing them. I have been told all my life that I am naive, and that "real world doesn't work that way" well let me say this.  I DON'T CARE!!!!! I live my life the way I want, and believe what I want. I hate being told that I can't do something or something isn't possible. Anything is possible you just have to be willing to work at it, and stick with it. I just ugh, I know I sound repetitive but this just bugs me to know end. Don't tell me that something isn't going to work or that I can't do something without giving it a chance. I have spent a good part of my life proving people wrong. I may have started out in life weak and vulnerable, but I am becoming a strong woman. I am not there yet, but I know I will get there one day.  I just wish people would stop.......being so judgmental of others, don't be so quick to point the finger at someone else, because more then likely you have just as many problems or issues as the person you are judging.  Just...think. It seems so easy to do, just like breathing, but I find most people don't think. They react. If people took more time to think about the things they did or said I feel the world would be a little less complicated and hurtful.
