Evening Thunk: What it feels like to matter........So many times in life we care about someone who simply does not care about us....I was thunkin today....on what it feels like to not matter. I think we have all experienced it at one point or another.....loving someone and wanting them to feel the same toward you.....and it hurts when it doesnt happen. It hurts when others find us "unnecessary"....We have an option with what to do with that hurt. You see, how others feel about us does not define who we are. It does not change reality, alter history, take away fact or change in any way, the WHO of who we are! But, our reaction to that hurt can be wrong....it can cause us to believe we are unworthy of love, it can cause us to feel as if we do not matter to anyone...we can allow our self esteem to be established by our reaction to that rejection. OR we can stand strong in WHO we are! Realizing that their lack of compassion, kindness, love or friendship does not in any way mirror the inner soul of who we are...it does however, display a good example of who they are. Keep loving people....even when it isnt returned....be true to YOU...and above all else....LOVE YOURSELF! Because everyone else in this world may fail you....disregard you...hurt you...or find you to be "unnecessary" to their lives....you may be the only person who holds you in high esteem and regard...and you are worth that love! Besides....for every ten people that will walk out of your life with no regard to the hurt or pain they cause....20 more will embrace you as a brother! Focus on those who see and love you as a necessary inclusion in their lives....and make sure you know just how loved you truly are...be confident in that....and as my mother would say: "walk proud in your moccasins" Thems jest mah thunks of the day!
