Silence is not golden.
It’s a sign that I’m being gossiped about. Especially if I just spoke my mind as candidly but blunt as ever. I’m okay with this because I’ve come to terms this week that I’m done with the bullsh*t and excuses. I want more for the people I love. I want them to be ambitious, to be rational, to live off of love/empathy instead of some odd popularity contest. We were taught better than that.
Each year, I have a “theme”
2014:
“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” Mark 8:36
2015:
Don’t let fear control your life and get in the way of your progression.
2016:
Grow Up.
-I want my voice heard and respected
-I want my friends/family to recognize that adults don’t act like they are in a high school clique
-I want to be a woman my daughter can look up to
