My self-esteem is like blowing a bubble with bubble gum. You can build me up so fast and show me off to your friends about how great of a bubble I am but once the bubble deflates then everything falls a part and you sit there for forever trying to blow another one as good as the first but it won't happen like that for at least a few more tries. Yep, my self-esteem is like blowing a bubble, it's up and down and once it's down, it'll take awhile to build it back up. I am sensitive, sentimental, I use my feelings more than my mind to guide most of my decisions. My heart is easily broken, I am influenced by the way people act towards me and they way they talk to me. I get super emotional, I cry over the smallest things. With all those things, though, that seem to be ME, all it takes is for someone to tell me, "You're beautiful", or that I am doing a good job at something, and I melt like ice cream on a sunny day. I am a work in progress. I am growing, day by day, I am making a path for myself to travel down. I can't continue being a piece of bubble gum. I want to be a boulder; a ton of confidence, high self-esteem, something you just don't mess with.
