At the end of the day we are not masters of what pleases our fathers, mothers, sisters or brothers. We cannot assure that our friends and loved ones will delight in us or cast us aside. It’s guesswork to know what pleases god. Perhaps it all does.
That is why I live a life that I’m proud of. Only I know of the trials and tribulations I have survived. Only I am privy to the depths from which I rise. I show up for myself. To love and advocate for I, because no one else will suffice.
I honor, love and fight for myself. I fiercely promise never to give up in sickness or in health.
