“You Will Be Excluded. You’ll Be Too Much for Some People. It Will Hurt”: Sister, ‘Be a Light’ in Spite of the Pain of Rejection
People are going to talk about you. Give them good material.
Extend grace to those who need it. We all struggle sometimes.
Life is tough. It’s messy. And it’s ugly at times. But, its also so beautiful. And exciting. And full of adventure. Chase them all!
Be a light. Don’t let anyone dull your shine. You never know who may be looking to you for a little bit of joy. Be that joy.
Go outside.
Go on a hike.
Swim in the ocean.
Try a new restaurant.
Go somewhere you’ve never been.
Look at the stars.
Take the pictures.
Watch the sunset.
Take the trip.
Buy the shoes.
Eat the cake (or the tacos!)
And, most importantly learn to love yourself. And forgive yourself for not being perfect.”
Perfect is boring.”
