"....In Which Lennon Follows Up and Expresses His Gratitude..."

So, after the events of last night's post, the crazy woman has attempted to call twice and text three times with no answer from yours truly. I haven't answered back and unless she gets really persistent or annoying, I have little or no intent of ever answering again. In truth, the thing that irked me the most wasn't that she was self centered, pushy and condescending. Granted, that shit was horrible and any one of those things on their own was grounds for deletion. What really disgusted me was the fact that she was so shallow. The volunteer work she (allegedly) did seemed to not matter to her as much as having it on her resume to brag about. She just wanted to own (enter fast car here) and (enter big house here). At no juncture did she offer any insight into what it feels like for her to help people or the actual impact she wants to make on the world. She just seemed to want something to hold over everyone else's head to feel superior. And after dating an evil woman who seemed to be the summation of such ambition, it's needless to say I have no interest in having such an awful person breathing the same air as me. More to the point of this post, it makes me thankful for knowing what's important to me: following my dreams and caring for my loved ones. Money is necessary and useful, but only with proper perspective. It doesn't make me a better writer and I can't spend it when I'm dead. The love of my family, making the world a little better than it was before I got here and doing something to make myself happy every single day....this is what makes me thankful. And of course, I'm thankful for everyone who reads this.
