I was just reading a Blog post on “giving the gift of kindness!” It made me realize just how blessed I am.
At this time in my life, thinking back to the negativity I was raised on, it IS a gift — the gift of experience and knowledge.
Although most of the bruises of the negative talk have healed, I am in a unique position to turn it around and encourage, support and inspire others. When I say “I know how you feel,” I DO!
NEVER GIVE UP — DO LISTEN to what other’s say, evaluate it, see IF there is any worth in what they are sharing, but… NEVER GIVE UP!
Turning a negative into a positive is a priceless gift. The negativity may not feel like a gift when it is happening, but given a little time to regroup and re-evaluate there is ALWAYS something worth learning and sharing with others — or a “life-lesson” to tuck away for yourself.
