From My Inbox: Screw Them Voices, Yo!
I received this message on Facebook the other day:
So I tipped over to D's page and clicked around a bit before responding...
The conversation went back and forth for a bit with my reminding her to not be a martyr and how martyrs have wrinkles and shit and she's too cute for all that and telling her that she should hire a housekeeper if she can afford it because nobody with kids should have to clean their own home if they can afford to outsource that job.
See...I struggle with why people talk so much crazy shit to themselves. You'd never say the stuff you say to yourself to someone else so why, knowing the power of loving yourself...would you ever say it to you? If someone walked up on you and said some of that ugly ish to your face that you have rattling around in your head, I have no doubt you'd launch at them trying to take them out so turn that same energy into beating that negative voice out, back and down. You don't have to deal with that shit. Nobody has to.
You need to be who you need. It's always been YOU.
