"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent"
I find so much comfort and truth to this. But I also find the sadness in how often I let people make me feel a certain way. I let them persuade me into believing lies about myself. I let them rob me of my joy. So what can we do about it? Well I say we prove them wrong. Someone once told me I could never make it in Philadelphia by myself. That moving across the country not knowing anyone was a bad idea. After having lived there for four years, and meeting some of the greatest people I will ever know, I take pride in the fact that I was able to prove him wrong. If I would have listened to him , just think about what I would have missed out on.
So don't let people steal your joy, your self worth, or make you feel inferior. We deserve to feel the joy that comes with living a beautiful life. And if you forget, just ask me, and I will remind you of how beautiful you are.
