Dear reader,
This week has presented challenges and good opportunities. The week went by so fast it was hard to keep track of everything done and everything said. I did my best to be a little more understanding and patient with other people. I had a conversation with a girl on Wednesday after our gym class had ended. she had just broken up with a guy she had been with for three years. once she was done speaking I told her it wasn't the end of the world and then I tried to give her some advice. It probably sounded really bad, but I did my best. Then I had this one guy on Thursday insult me pretty badly. Normally I would have just gone ahead and decked him, but instead I told him that if he wanted to be a man he should fight me. I told him that if he wouldn't fight me then he had no business insulting me. Not the most graceful approach, but effective. And I was in control. this is most likely the first time I took it that easy on some one.
That's all for now. I will be back next week with an update on my progress.
Sincerely,
Malcolm McMillan
Hey! Even though you may not think so, you have made more progress than most who are like you are able to. In regards to the conversation you had with the girl I think you handled it very well because even though you’ve never been in this type of situation, well at least I don’t know if you have, you tried to give her advice you believe might work and what you told her about it’s not the end of the world I agree with it because she can’t stop her life due to what happened. Now, the way you handled the situation where the guy insulted you was great and I would honestly do the same if I was in your position but one thing that would make you better would be not always resorting to having any type of relation to ‘fight’ in order to have them back down. I would try to show I have more control of the situation than he has and show that the comment doesn’t affect me like he hoped. Keep up the great work Malcolm!
