If you want to be accepted by others, here’s what I recommend:
1. Stay quiet so you don’t accidentally say the wrong thing
2. Keep telling yourself you need to be more experienced, qualified or famous before you start
3. Only say what the majority agree on
4. Spend a lifetime shrinking yourself for the opinion of people who don’t care about you, and vice versa…
^ Sarcasm intended, btw.
Look, I’ve gotten hate for things that I’ve said that I’d thought was safe.
I’ve gotten pure love for things that I’ve sad that were hot and on edge.
You can’t win a game that you can’t control.
Share your truth with courage.
Share it with raw emotion.
Share it with authenticity.
The world needs more voices like yours.
