The negativity has been LOUD the lately. I'm not going to give it much energy or attention, that only feeds it... makes it bigger... gives it strength; In which of course it does not deserve. I read a quote today that helped me put things into perspective (you know I love me some perspective)....
Listen to your heart. Follow its prompting. Honor what you feel and act accordingly. People can convince us that we are what we are not, and lead us to believe that we are not what we are. Be able to identify your original thoughts from those you have adopted. Trust that you can have an original thought and act upon it even when others are not pleased by what you are doing.
Because:
The only relationship we can have in this life is the relationship we have with ourselves. We cannot love anybody more than we love ourselves. We cannot treat anyone any better than we treat ourselves. When you forget you, give up on you, or devalue yourself, anyone coming into your life has a universal responsibility to follow your lead.
....and as an end result, EVERYTHING is ALWAYS ok. Everything. No matter what the negative noise is. No matter what insecurity someone else is projecting onto you to try and bring you into their circle of unhappiness..... Your chest should always remind you that you are ok. Because you are listening to your heart... despite... despite it all. And you are loving yourself. Allowing yourself to be WHO.YOU.ARE.
My friend and I always say, DO YOU. #nike
It's the most incredible, simple, encouraging, rewarding life lesson we can learn. I encourage you to not waste your life and learn it too late. Be great. Be great now. Be confident, and above all, always intrinsically follow your gut. Your instinct is your pathway to Gods voice. No one knows better than Him.
I leave you with this: people will always treat you how you let them. Be strong. Demand greatness. When someone shows you who they are my friends, BELIEVE them.
