I feel like such an asshole. I've been so absorbed in my own stupid superficial crap that I've been neglecting certain people in my life. Just found out some upsetting news that basically jolted me out of my bubble and back into reality. I'm so mad and ashamed at myself for being such a self-absorbed loser. It's not who I am, but it's who I've been lately.
I'm not very good at dealing with emotional situations. Depending on the circumstance, I either emotionally shut down and never say a word and just cry. Or else on the other end of the spectrum, I get so angry that things come out of my mouth that surprise even me. But in this situation, I feel like shutting down a little, but I'm going to try not to. The good thing about this is that it was the smack in the face that I needed to get my priorities back in order. I've been wasting too much time worrying about things that, in the big picture, just don't matter. It's time to snap out of it and get it together.
