Are You Living With A Hater In Your Life?

Fam, have you ever been extremely excited about something and when you decide to share it with somebody (usually someone close to you) they give you that “I could care less” type of response? And that just totally blows your whole high?! Well you’re not alone! I’m here to testify that it happens… and it happens way too often! SMH! Unfortunately, I have no solution for these situations because you just can’t prepare for them! You just don’t know what’s going to come out the other persons mouth until it’s too late! L But I’m here to tell you… they’re a hater! I know, I know… You don’t want to believe it. Neither do I! But what else do you call someone who is too insecure to actually look outside themselves to be happy for someone else?! Especially if you’re excelling in an area that they’re lacking in? Even if that “lack” is unknown to you. They take it as personal!?? *lightbulb on* A hater! *SMH* But I will tell you this… WHATEVER IT IS THAT HATER IS HATING ON YOU MUST CONTINUE TO EXCEL IN IT!! Believe me, their “negative” response is purposeful and meant to deter you from doing what it is you’re so proud of. So I beg you, don’t let that cause you to break, quit, or get discouraged. Some things are better left shown and not said… so just SHOW them how good you’re doing! Even without they’re support. Instead of going to that same “negative nancy” for advice or gratification, just do something gratifying for yourself! Buy something new, get your hair/nails done, visit family/friends... do something fun! Do what makes you feel good! Because the best comeback from a negative remark/action is to continue doing you and watching them watch you! So let them watch... while you watch them hate! You’re a force to be reckoned with and nothing, I mean nothing, should stop you from DOING YOU!

SB: You want to know what I did for MY gratifying moment? (my 20 lb weight loss) I got my hair did... mm hhmm..  I got it braided in fact. Took the 3 hr drive to Harlem, NY and even got in some shopping on 125th Street. I haven’t had my hair braided since I was in High School! I love it! And you can’t tell me NOTHING! J

Welp, have a great weekend everyone! TTYL...
