Spite. That's my only remaining motivating force. Anything I do is out of spite, just to show them.

One day you'll probably look back on this and regret all the energy you spent being upset at "them." They are living rent-free in your head and in reality probably don't realize that they did you wrong. At least, that's what I tell myself when I reflect on all the jerk behavior I've ever dealt with. It's hard to let go of that crap even when you know it isn't good for you, but you should try.
who is them?
Probably all the people who don't remember you anymore?
The people who have been laughing at him his entire life.
All of us.
the bullies, the naysayers, the non-believers! aha
