Square Peg, Round Hole

Dear person trying to force “ISH”,

I saw a quote on instagram that I couldn’t get out of my mind. It read, “If it’s not a HELL YES, it’s a NO”. For some reason this quote stayed on my mental. Just so happen in my life recently that I realized that people just don’t think and feel like me. Yes, I know that we are all different and it is sort of a cliche saying that people use but it is so true. Sometimes when I try to explain my frame of mind or my position on something people really miss it, they miss the mark. They miss my mark…there is not fault of blame on either side. It just is what it is. I often think, what if they were never supposed to get it anyway? I am a firm believer that God enters into all things. There have been so many things in my life that I have wanted that in retrospect it just wasn’t meant to be.

More often times than not, I feel like a square peg trying to fit in a round whole. The thing is when things are not going right we tend to look at ourselves as the flaw in the plan. Yes, I am all for self examination but I am at a point in my life where I have to say to myself it is their loss. If I applied for a position that I was qualified for and didn’t get the job, it is their loss. If I showed interest in a person and they give me luke warm vibes, it is their loss. Pay attention to vibes…

I am good with being good with me and that is the most important thing. Sometimes you have to get by yourself to get the clarity that you need. The amazing thing is it is likely something that you knew in the back of your mind or a feeling that you had in your gut that you were trying to ignore anyway. Let go and let flow… what is for you is for you but you do not have to force it.

Sincerely,

The person who no longer forces “ISH”…
