Hi everyone,
This week’s Motivational Monday theme is “be an advocate for yourself and others”.
There will be people in your life who treat you poorly
They won’t give you the time of day
They will brush past you as if you don’t exist
They will call you names
They will hurt your feelings
They may hurt your heart.
There will be people in your life who go above and beyond
They won’t turn their backs
They will hug you like they mean it
They will make you laugh uncontrollably
They will make you cry with their generosity
They will love you so much it hurts.
Who will you choose to associate yourself with?
Who will you listen to?
Who will you learn from?
Who will you emulate?
Who will you choose to be?
I have always been a big proponent of sticking up for those who can’t stick up for themselves or don’t know how. Don’t let someone else’s words or actions define you. Only you hold the pen to write your own story.
