Also thank you for opening up and sharing your expereinces around this powerful issue ,Shannon. With all due respect Shannon sometimes not often,when I read some of the things you've been thru,I'm like " Well Hell if He can do I KNOW I can do it,too!"
SpiritMan yer awesome. U desreve co-workers to respect you more man!

Bye! leave'um in the dust. yer headed fer higher ground man. who needs it? F- it! Keith
Yeah I know I deserve co-workers that respect me, but I really don't need them at all. I have told them already that when I make it big one day, don't come knocking on my door or try to be my friend. I am slowly getting comfortable having power and standing up for myself. It is still a bit of struggle to be firm, stuff like that, but it will all come together. I just remind myself that, I'm the only one that can live my life. No one can live it or do it for me; you will always will have haters, critics. However, you have to do what you feel is right in your heart, even if people criticize you for it.
A lot of those people at work try to talk down to me, they mostly do it to make themselves feel better because they have low esteem, confidence. My current work environment is VERY negative. Filled with rumors, gossips, ass kissing the bosses, double standards, lip service, hypocrisy. Anyone who tries to stand up for themselves, gets put down as not being a team player, being part of the problem, not a solution. I am not trying to focus too much on what is going on there, but I wanted to give you guys a preview as to what I deal with daily.
So, it is a consent struggle to keep my mind on positive thoughts, being who I want to be and who I want in my life. In regards, to co-workers, friends, women, the list goes on. I have finally learned how to do it, when something negative happens, I try to shift my focus to something positive. I know that I am destined for something far better than what I am currently living, working, and I'm the only one who can make it happen. If what I say and do offends people because I don't go with what is considered "normal," so be it. It is my life and I am going to live it the way I want it; I will listen to ideas, suggestions. But, the overall decision with what I do with my life, is mine.
