I grew up in a time where children were actually scared of adults for that very exact reason. In fact I recall using this very statement, "I'm not going to do that, don't you know that my grandparents are crazy!" And just so we are I clear, I expect Jax to grow up telling his friends the same thing.
Ok, here's the truth: My bark is often worse than my bite. However my tolerance for bullshit is negligible, if any at all. I've often been told that I don't have a filter, and at 32 I don't plan on getting one either. Becoming a mom has lowered your odds of sympathy from me. Don't get me wrong, I am a very compassionate, loyal person. If you were down and out and I could help I would but people often view my kindness as a weakness. I've come to terms with the fact that I'm not liked by all. At this point in my life I'm not concerned with others or their opinion of me. They haven't provided me with any of the blessings that have been bestowed upon me. They don't have a heaven (or a hell for that matter) to put me in. I stopped viewing life as a popularity contest a long time ago. I've been sent by the Kingdom for an important assignment. I have dreams to live out and a purpose to walk in.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 (Nefertari's Introspective Version)
Nefertari, I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Nefertari, you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
I'm prayed up and I'm focused man! No weapon....
