Hello to second chances;

“I am here again, in a familiar place feeling something I've felt before, wondering why it's still here, why I didn't deal with it more fully before. But I'm glad I have a second chance at it ... and I know that if I need a third chance, I'll get it. I also know that if it comes up again, I'll recognize it sooner and deal with it more readily. This is growth. And, I am happy to be alive.” -Jan Denise

They say that everyone deserves a second chance. It's extremely debatable. On one hand, if you keep giving people more and more chances, you're just giving them the path to walk all over you. And it gives people hope that maybe someday that person will change. You just keep feeding candy to a kid with cavities. But in some cases there are some people who deserve second chances. I mean, everyone screws up. And I believe that people can change. So why shouldn't they have a second chance?

On the other hand, you have people who don't put up with people begging for second chances. Who protect themselves well, but may be missing out on something that maybe could have changed. They have a hard shell and a soft heart. 

And this is what clutters my mind. I don't know where I stand. I think some people deserve chances. But who am I to decide who deserves anything? And this is where my mind conflicts. In my own situations, I've been both people. The hard shell and soft shell [Mexican restaurant reference]......with the same person. And now, I'm back in that same situation. With that same person. No lie guys, I pretty much suck. :/ Input would be nice.

On a lighter note, tomorrow is Christmas Day! :D We're supposed to get some snow. Some Scrooges need to smile a little. It's bound to be amazing?
