Being Misunderstood: Munzzy Uddin

We all have different opinions and mindsets. It's what makes you YOU! But that doesn't mean we are wrong for the way we think. As long as you know the difference between right and wrong, you can never really be wrong. I was recently misunderstood due to conflicting mind sets. But was I wrong? Well I'll leave that for you guys to decide. 

I am a very calm person who really doesn't like to have problems or drama in my life. I try to keep myself out of trouble as much as I can. I believe as you grow up, the more mature you get, the more you need to get out of the "kid" mindset and into the "adult" mindset. I always tell my friends, especially my girls that I don't really follow the "girl code". In my opinion, I think that's very childish and stupid. I live my own life by my choices, my actions, MY codes; which is what is right and what is wrong.

Other people might have a thing to say or even try to change my opinions, but at the end of the day, I stick to what I believe. But that doesn't mean I'm not loyal, which is what someone misunderstood me as. My friendships are important, so my friends know I would never do anything that would jeopardize them. If any of my friends have problems with someone, someone who I have nothing against or who have done nothing wrong to me; do not expect me to have problems with them just cause my friends do. I believe everyone you meet in life has something to offer you and if you start crossing people off cause of all the problems each one of your friends have with other people, those are opportunities that you are losing. 

At the end of the day, the person realized she was wrong for calling disloyal without giving me a chance to explain. We both agreed that we have different perspectives which is why we didn't see eye to eye at first. I will always value my friendships and be the best friend I can be but I won't let my friends opinions and problems change how I think or believe.
