The Journal of Madeline Pestolesi

Wise words from a supposedly old man.

Today I received one of the best compliments ever from another member of this site. Here is what he said (I hope he doesn't mind, but I am just so pleased.)

"You cannot know this, but I'm going to clue you in, OK? YOU ARE A GOOD HAPPENING!!!!! You are different and so VERY SPECIAL. You ARE who you ARE!! Billions of people would love to be that way, and can't. NEVER be or do those things that aren't you. You are PRECIOUS to the world!!!!! JUST BE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Which surprised me, because it seemingly came out of nowhere. So I asked him what prompted this to which he replied:

"YOUR INDIVIDUALITY prompted my writing you. People being who the are, and who they want to be is soooo rare. You are a breath of fresh air, and a spark to imagination, and futuristic dreams. Be who and what you want to be. We all benefit by it!!!!"

I then asked if I seem sad to him.

"No, on the contrary. You seem very happy with who you are. I'm an old man, and I know this to be true. Those who are what and who they want to be, become the most satisfied people in the world!!! Mark my words!!! It's TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

It's just one of those things I needed to hear at this time in my life. I was getting so tired of being someone else, and now it's like I've been given permission to be who I want without worry. This really made my day. This is definetly my good thing for today.
