I’m comfortable being myself without definition

I take on responsibility because I like it

I’m not too scared or too cynical to try to fit in,

I’m happy to be the black sheep if I don’t.

I choose to play with words & rarely use them as weapons

I struggle with my temper, but I’m proud of the struggle

I don’t look down on people who aren’t like me

I choose to be pleasant because it costs me nothing

I stand up for myself without becoming a shrew

I enjoy a good argument but will call it a discussion

I smile when I’m angry & sometimes laugh when I’m sad

I eat icecream straight from the tub & put it back in the freezer

And yet I’m still just a submissive, just me�?& proud of it
