Smarter than I Look

I can honestly say I'm not book smart I struggled to finish High School.  I grew up with a learning disability and it kinda has stuck with me through out my life unfortunately. I have passed this along to my daughter which I hate.  I struggled with math and science mostly.  For some reason retaining information in those classes was super difficult.  I did do very well in Literature/English and History even though I found History quite boring. I did alright in other classes.  Even though I struggled though school it doesn't make me dumb/stupid.


I am actually smarter than I let on to be or at least to some people.  Most people who know me and really take the time to get to know me understand this. What I lack in book smarts I make up in common since.  And like I said only a few and very far in between know this about myself and I kinda don't mind. There are a few maybe less than a handful of people who think I am not a smart person and think that if it came down to it they can take advantage of me..I can say I know how to take care of myself and not let that happen.  I have learned so much over the years on how to protect me and my kids if I have too.  Thinks in my life no so good has happened than has opened my eyes to know better the next time.  Common since can make your life so much easier.  I know people who think they have common since only because they are book smart and maybe even have money.


The advantage I have in life isn't just having common since, but being an all around good person.. treat people the way you want them to treat you.  In life you never know who you might need to lean on for support or guidance.  I tell myself everyday that it's going to be a great day.. Sometime's it isn't but believing differently would have make my day worse.   Always  stay aware trust the one's you love and stay somewhat leery of those you just meet.  Don't let anyone take advantage of you.

I know this don't make since to many people.. This just a weird thing on my mind that I just wanted to put out there is all.  This is kinda my rambling. This something for me too look back on.. I am sure I will look at this later down the road and say what in the world was I trying to say.

GOOD NIGHT AND SWEET DREAMS TO ALL.
