Day 65 / 100 Days to More ~

Stop beating yourself up. We all make mistakes. Stop blaming yourself for how things turned out. You may have failed, but you are not a failure. Where you are right now does not define you. Judge not according to appearances. Keep on fighting regardless of the circumstances. Hang in there despite how things appear. Keep the faith. Life is on your side. Never, never, ever give up. You were born to win! You have something special and GREATNESS within you. My desire for you…enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to bring you joy.

Throughout your lifetime some people will discredit you, disrespect you and treat you poorly for no apparent reason at all. Don’t consume yourself with trying to change them or win their approval. And don’t make any space in your heart to hate them. Simply walk away and let karma deal with the things they do, because any bit of time you spend on them will be wasted, and any bit of hate and aggravation in your heart will only hurt you.

“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty, truth, and compassion against injustice.” William Faulkner

Action: If you never ask, the answer will be no.  If you never speak up, you’ll have regrets.
