The Weight of Words

The weight of words....I come across so many people who have been told something from someone in their life that is usually negative and they end up holding onto it forever. It becomes their crutch. It weighs them down and consequently sometimes sends them into a downward spiral. Parents tell their kids that they are stupid and will never succeed, so they don't. A boyfriend tells a girl she is fat so she becomes anorexic. And so on..... We have all been told something at some point that has ended up making us insecure for a time, right?

Before you say something that may be negative towards someone, think about how you would feel if someone said that to you. And on the other side of that coin, don't let one person get you down. Their words only mean as much as you allow them to. Believe in who are and what you are about. It's nobody's place to judge you, nor are you in any place to judge others.

I just had to get that one out. It's been bugging me all week. Have a beautiful and judge free day!
