Maybe we talk different.. have a different slang...maybe we look different... size, shape, color... it doesn't matter.. what matters is our hearts... how we treat others...some people are so self centered they just don't GET IT... or maybe they are hiding behind a past hurt...we all have a story.. what makes you get THRU your story and not just stay stuck living the hurt and pain is friends....but SO MANY have a Shell,,, a wall that they can't see when someone truly cares about them... maybe its just a phone call to say Hi... maybe its just a private message on facebook to share something exciting....this week I have done both.. and got slammed in the face with rudeness on both occasions...Does it HURT.. OH your darn right.. it hurts... Only human ya know... BUT the thing you gotta do when that happens is not dwell on it.. I used to.. I used to make myself SICK going over and over in my head what did I do wrong.. what did I say... then a good friend told me "It's not YOU.. it's THEM" I have never forgotten her words... she is so right... All you can control is YOU...and people won't change no matter HOW hard you try.. IT'S up to them to figure it out

STAY IN PEACE... when you are going THROUGH your storm...it is soo much easier to get through when you are not all worked up.. hollering.. depressed.. you know every emotion the devil likes to jump up and down for...don't give him the satisfaction...When you are in peace your mind is clear.. you are more relaxed.. take a deep breath.. Pray ask for protection.. guidance through your situation and I feel like I need to add this also....We can not control others.. the way they treat us...so Guard your heart ...9 times out of 10 the problem is not you.. its them... and they have to work through it with God.. its personal...

One of the hardest aspects of making positive changes in your life is dealing with other people. Your family, "friends" and colleagues. The people who believe that, because they're in your life, they have a say in what you do and that their opinion should always be considered.

But when it comes to you and your life, you are the only person who's opinion matters.

If you make the choice to create positive changes, for yourself, that is all that matters. You don't need anyone's approval, validation or support... and most of the time, you really should avoid it.

Why it Doesn't Matter What Other People Think

Sometimes people respond from a place of fear.

Most people are uncomfortable with change... so when you mix things up, they're not likely to be your biggest supporter. They're not used to your new style, interests or habits, and this is disruptive or uncomfortable. From this place of fear, they tend to nudge you back to their comfort zone.

Maybe your friends are playfully pressuring you to eat crappy food or have a drink, despite the fact that you've decided to shift to a more healthy lifestyle. Maybe your significant other doesn't like that fact that you joined a book club because they're insecure about you meeting other people. Maybe your family gives you a hard time about the job you took in another state because it means that they have to learn to deal with distance in your relationship.

It's selfish and does not have your best interests in mind. Be cautious of fear-based input.

Sometimes people just don't get it... and they don't get you.

If you've made the decision to make positive shifts and someone in your life is not supportive or is totally against the idea, they likely aren't someone who A) cares about your needs, or B) really gets you.

When people in your life get you, they'll be able to see your side, support you and will also cheer you on! These are the people that check in with you on your progress, find ways to motivate you, and care if you reach your goals.

People that aren't supportive and don't get you don't get to have a say in what you do. Ever.

You are the only person with an opinion that matters.

This is your life! Your body, your career, your time, and your happiness that's at stake. It's important to be considerate of other people in your life, but it comes down to what you want and what you need to be happy and healthy. The best way you can serve other people is to take care of yourself first.

When it comes to choices and change, always do a gut check. What do you want to do? What would make you feel joy, passion, healthy or on the right path? Do that. No other opinions needed. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/stephenie-zamora/other-opinions_b_4234050.html

"Isaiah put it this way, “Arise and shine for the glory of the Lord is upon you.” It doesn’t say, “The glory is going to come on you one day.” No, it says, “The glory of the Lord is already on you.” Joel Osteen
Stop sitting on your duff.. waiting for YOUR ship to come in... Get up... Its already docked... its up to you what YOU do with it..... Holding Grudges....Being miserable... doesn't hurt the ones you are upset only makes you full of hatred and unpleasant to be around...Same as Self Pity...what does it serve...nothing but the devil...ohhh when you are sitting around saying OH Poor Pitful me... he is Jumping up and down having a party .. its up to YOU to Arise and Shine.. no one can do it for you.. you can call 72 friends and tell them your problems... probably get 72 different responses... STOP talking about it to others... just magnifies them....Talk to the ONE ... HE is there HE will help you... Put your suit of armour on and LETS GO.... Have A GREAT DAY

"People may not approve you. Don’t worry about it. God approves you. People can’t stop the plan for your life." Joel Osteen
HEY YOU... Yes YOU....you are not defined by what someone else thinks you should be....God made you special.. to walk and Shine in your own special way... if you are constantly trying to be someone else.. or wishing you looked like someone else or had the talents and gifts that God gave someone else... YOU are WASTING YOUR precious time..Self Confidence is one of the most beautiful things there is...Be Confident ... Be HAPPY... but most of all BE YOU
