Shine Through


If someone disrespects
or discourages
or dismisses you
(not once, but regularly,
in ways big and small,
outright and subtle)....

If someone has disdain for you,
disregard,
and always a disparaging remark
(even if 'hidden' under humor)....

If someone acts like they don't
like you very much or that they
don't enjoy your presence, as is...

Leave...

Make them Leave...

Stop Going Back...

Break Things Off....

Stop feeding the Beast.

Respect yourself enough
rather than waiting for them to do so.

No matter who they might be.

Stop them,
separate yourself,
and NEVER go back.

Design your own life...

Break free from
the maddening crowd...

Detach from the thrall
of others' input
and influence...

Disown doubt  
in your dreams
and abilities...

Embrace faith and joy
in who you are...

All these and more
are steps to success
and happyness!
