Selfish is The Key to Selfless

I was born to stand out and raised to fit in. For many years I have fought what I was born to do and tried to conform to societies sickest ideals. In the past month I have learned a lot about myself and that is never easy. I know now that I am strong, smart, dedicated, and courageous. Those are not bad traits to have but in our society they force us to stand out of the box. When you feel suffocated in life for so long it is freeing to realize you have broken out. I am writing again which is good I lost that part of my day because it got filled with kids this and husband that, both of which are important but I am important too. I think we go through life with this idea that we need to be selfless all of the time its "what good people do" so to speak. I have learned that you can't be that selfless person when you want to be if you are not thinking of yourself every once in a while. My lesson has come at a heavy cost and I hope I can spare you all the pain that has absorbed my life because of it. There is a balance between selfless and selfish and even if that word doesn't make society happy it is needed. 
Now I am working on a new novel and finishing up a couple old projects I can't wait to be doing final edits but that goal is a ways out. 
Happy Friday everyone I hope your reading something amazing and will share in the comment box below...
