The Journey to a Better Me

Being a human, I have quite a few cons and pros and I’m sure every other human has good and bad about themself. However, I feel like something that describes me the most is how moody I can get.

Every emotion I go through gets to an extreme level. If I’m happy or excited about something, I’m on cloud nine and if the plan is canceled, I’d have a lump in my throat. 

I remember this one time where my cousins came to meet me, one who came from the UK and the other one from Saudi, here in Qatar where I live. As it was their first time in Qatar, my sisters had created a full list on where to go and one of them was an amusement park. It was one of my favorite places to go, Lusail Winter Wonderland is what it’s called. As some of my cousins were a bit older than me, they wouldn’t enjoy an amusement park rather than a shooting range! I was furious as my dad asked ways to change route to Lusail Shooting range. I cried and cried for ages and ages that even my mom who was at a mall with my aunt had to call me on the line to console me. It wasn’t even fun there, to the fact I didn’t even do anything. 

Another point is my respect and temper issues, that I can’t stop thinking until my revenge is taken. From the tiniest mistake to the biggest backfire, I make sure that they are pushed down and not ready to fight again. Believe me or not, this has happened with my mother too, which is why I want to improve at this point specifically. Just imagine; fighting with your own mother who gave you life is like stabbing her heart, and this is what I call disrespect. 

The points I listed down are areas I want to improve, and even if it takes me ages to improve them, I will not give up. 

I feel like someone who is really good at controlling temper and not taking her emotions too far is my own elder sister, who I find really handy sometimes. Ovecorce everybody is not perfect, but if I try to match her level of respect and patience, I would definitely improve from what I am now and try my best to stay like that, and that is something I have promise to myself.
