I stumbled upon this today and I absolutely had to repost it. It speaks for itself but this is exactly what we need to remind ourselves of every day of our life. Stay classy, proud and to never settle for anything less than the best. We are all confronted with all kind of shit every day: getting attitudes from people we may or may not know, dealing with the bitchy boss or co-worker, or a sneaky/backstabbing friend... it is so tempting to just take the easy way out and quit or snap and lose your temper for something that's not worth it or to take or do something because it's "less trouble" -- the so called "safe" way.
But at the end of the day, is that what is going to make us happy? Be with a person because it's comfortable and reassuring to have someone there but not because we love them or can't imagine to be without them? Or take disrespect, put it in our pocket and ignore it and not stand up for ourselves??! I think you know the answer to that already..
Ladies, please take this quote and write these wise words on your mirror or on the background of your cell-phone, because believe me, it is sooooo easy to forget this rule, especially when it get's hard and I realized one thing a couple of months ago, which changed my life: you are not going to make your dreams happen if you don't respect yourself and have confidence that if you work hard enough, you will achieve them, even if it may take some time (I'm not saying be full of yourself, I'm saying be confident BIG DIFFERENCE! But that shall be for another time).
Everyone deserves to live their dream, but one has to believe in oneself first.

These are true words of wisdom Mona!
