what do i care about?

Interesting question. I'm often accused of being arrogant. And not caring for people's feelings. Friends...and this is friends....tell me I remind them of "House." Maybe they're right. I am arrogant at times. And I don't care how people take harsh news. I just don't wanna sugarcoat anything anymore. Time is short. I'm flawed.
So what do I care about? My daughters. They are amazing women. Full of heart and questions and strength. I'm different when I'm around them. My school. I started it. I've stayed up late at night thinking, figuring, trying to make it work. Keeping staff focused, realizing everyone looked to me for answers that I wasn't sure I possessed. So I faked it. My sister. She's one of the few who can whisper something and change my mind. My people at school. They are my nucleus. They've worked with me for a few years. They accept that it has to benefit kids. They know sometimes things get choppy. They shout back as infrequently as I shout at them.
If I had to do it again I wouldn't change a thing. Everything in my life has happened for a reason. Either as an opportunity to learn, or an opportunity to grow.It's the journey silly.
