I don’t understand why anybody wouldn’t want to be the best they could be at all times. It baffles me. Maybe I am just a judgmental brat? I don’t really know, but I see it all of the time. Do you know how many times I have heard the words, “You deserve better than me”? This always takes me back a step and my head reels with:
Why?! What the heck for?! If you know I deserve better than you, why aren’t you stepping up? Why aren’t you being the best you can be regardless of me? Why aren’t you trying to move in that direction? Don’t you know people need you? Don’t you know the Lord needs you? Don’t you know I need you?
I don’t expect perfect. I don’t even want perfect. I want someone I can grow with. I just want someone who will try over and over and over again and let me do the same.
I don’t get it. I just don’t get it. I hate those words, “You deserve better than me.” Step up already and be what you know you should be. It’s already within you, just get out of your own way and let you be.
