graphtersawyer Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I know things from living life and seeing stuff and being brought to canned conclusions from my bloated brain. I know things from the aforementioned, and there are lessons within the things I know that I find unconventional yet useful. I know everything, and the thing of the every that I will tell you now is this:Obstination is a virtue, not a vice.You see, I’m quite stubborn, and I’m never wrong, and I’m perfect, and I live by that (star ratings be damned). You see, I’m telling you this because I’m brilliant. You see, I shine brighter than all those stupid stars you sleep under.When I was seven or eight or nine I was kicked out of my house by my mother because I was a child. When I was eight or nine or seven I sat naked on the sidewalk in the Texas heat with my baby fat and a pack of hot dogs because I was a child. When I was nine or seven or eight I knew everything.Parents call their children child. Parents think being a child is an insult. Parents aren’t so brilliant. They think they’re smart. They think they’re better. They think they’re perfect. I don’t think so. I don’t think I’m wrong. I don’t think being stubborn is such a bad thing. I don’t lose. I don’t lose. I don’t lose.I never have to lose because I’m perfect. I never have to lose because I’m right. I never have to lose because I’m stubborn and serious about not changing direction. I was dragged back to the house by my braids. I was dragged back to the house victorious. I was dragged back to the house with my dignity and principle.Obstination is a virtue, not a vice.It’s some lesson I didn’t pick up in homeschool that stuck.——————————————————————————————————————————————What’s a childhood lesson you learned? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather be obstinate about my goals, and not wear it as a badge for my complete character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
