it will be okay

i've always been a 'people pleaser'--that is, i don't like it when people are upset with me.  growing up, i didn't need to be grounded.  i just had to hear this phrase come from my parents' mouths:  'kristin, we're so disappointed in you.'  don't know why i'm wired that way, but i am.

working on some things at work knowing full well that someone would be disappointed.  i really didn't want to approach this task as defeated, but i knew that no matter what, someone would not be pleased with the end result.  i guess all i can do is walk away knowing that i've tried, but something had to give and not everyone will be happy.  tough thing, especially with my people pleasing tendencies.

it will be okay.  it will be okay.  it will be okay.  it will be okay.  it will be okay.  it will be okay.  it will be okay.
