I'm a Heartless Bitch because I believe in getting on with it. Good things happen to bad people, bad things happen to good people, there is not Santa/Tooth Fairy/Guardian Angel to wave a magic wand to get better, so dry your eyes, learn from what went wrong, and go on and live your life.
I don't go around facilitating other people's ineptness. Anyone can make a mistake, but when it becomes a lifestyle, I lose sympathy fast. Hey, you lost your job - better not waste time in finding another. Can't pay the rent this month? Better go find that job a bit quicker. I pay my own way and expect others to do likewise. Except for my cats, but they have special dispensation on the grounds that they don't talk as much rubbish as humans. If insisting that adults behave like adults makes me a Heartless Bitch, then so be it.
Everything I've got I've worked for. Perhaps I don't have as much as others. What I do have is a comfortable roof over my head, food in the fridge, books on the shelf, and yes, I am grateful for that. I am particularly glad not to have a credit card statement that keeps me awake at night. When did having the swishiest car, the Manolos and the Prada handbag become more important than peace of mind? If you can't afford it, save for it, or give it up. I learned the hard way that true friends appreciate you for what you are, not what you have. And they appreciate me being a Heartless Bitch, because sometimes a Bitch is the only one you can trust.
