this quote has stuck with me the past couple of days…
i remember seeing it once on pinterest and absolutely LOVING it because of how true it is!
no matter how nice we are to people..
no matter how great our intentions may be..
no matter how genuine we truly are..
there will still ALWAYS be people out there ready to tear us down!
people ready to leave a hurtful comment, people constantly criticizing and people insisting to think our intentions are always for the worse.
but today… that needs to be okay with me.
i believe that if i know my true intentions, i know where my heart stands, and i know not everyone else will all EVER be on the same page as me.. that i can be HAPPY and not let other peoples judgements affect how i live.
sometimes i feel i am in a constant fear of trying to please absolutely EVERYONE. trying to explain myself. trying to help them see where i am coming from. trying SO hard to not let a hurtful comment effect me with all that i have.
but ya know what?
life is too short.
i perhaps could live the most “perfect” life possible and be nice to every single thing in my sight with the truest of intentions and people will still choose to look at me in a dark light.
that’s super sad to me.
but that’s REALITY.
i know where i stand.
i know what i believe in.
i know my intentions.
i know i would never deliberately try to hurt another person.
and that my friends.. is all that matters.
so today let’s all listen to t-swizzle’s new song shake it off and remember that the haters gonna hate.
