WORTH A LOT MORE :)

It is just recently that I have realized that people treat you according to the way you treat yourself. However, criticism and rejection will always be a factor of life. No-one can make everybody satisfied. Hurtful exchange of words will take place now and then, but it is always up to you with regards to what you do with the negative information

Back then; when I used to feel so sorry for myself due to me being in the shoes of a victim; I was so fragile and always agitated and hurt by the littlest negativity that anybody would say or do. I felt so intimidated and I never stood up for myself. If somebody, even a random person was to come to me and say, “you are nothing.”, I actually believed it. My brain had the tendancies of rehearsing all these words and breeding hurt aswell as feeding on my low self esteem. That was then

Last month while in a conversation with my mom, she said, “now that everything is clear and out, you’re gonna be fine, you’re gonna be strong.”. I didn’t believe it until today when an experience challenged my newly found ego. I told myself I am worth more than any negativity and so instead of rehearsingand trying to believe what was spoken of my life I encouraged myself and spent the rest of my day with people who made me feel happy and appreciated(my brother and cousins).

The bible says life and death are in the power of the tongue. People will speak death in you, but counter attack and speak life in yourself. As for me, I encourage myself in with my worth in Christ, and my worth in my family and community. J yes indeed, mom was right; I AM STRONG!
