Extraordinary

This is going to be a rant and a rave and then some. Consider yourself warned.

I am done sitting by, watching amazing, extraordinary people take crap when they really shouldn't. When they should know better. When they make excuses for the crap givers because they begin to question how extraordinary they truly are.

Listen to me. And listen hard. Be brave and acknowledge that you are truly amazing, and people around you should treat you accordingly. I'm not talking red carpets and expensive gifts and whatever other superficial stuff. I'm talking respect, and honesty, and love. I'm not saying you should be proud and act like you are the salt of the earth. Acknowledge what you deserve from people around you. PLEASE. You are too good to be living life by somebody else's rules when your inner happiness, and inner sunshine, and inner spirit and inner extraordinariness is at stake.

You are extraordinary. It is your gift to share it, and look after it. If you dampen it, you will have to answer to no-one but yourself.
