You don’t need to prove yourself to anyone. They may or may not recognize your value. It doesn’t make you anything less of what you want to be. Truth of the matter is, one perspective doesn’t determine the bigger picture. This thought occurred to me when I found out that the genuinely nice person I am, does not necessarily come across to everyone like I think it does. But if you don’t see it…. then someone else will. Fact of the matter is, i’m not going to change much.. but maybe your perspective will.
Those things the press has been saying about me (are fine) if they want to give the wrong impression. It’s as simple as all that. I’m not interested in being a millionaire. The one thing a person wants most in life is usually something basic that money can’t buy. I’m not the girl next door- I’m not a goody-goody-but I think I’m human. As far as I’m concerned, the happiest time of my life is now. There’s a future, and I can’t wait to get to it. It should be interesting.
