I’ve tasted the bitter aftertaste of trying to impress others. And it was the quickest route to feeling completely depressed. If the accolades coming from others are the lifeline to our pursuits, we become enslaved by their compliments and crushed by their criticisms.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9
“she woke up different. done with trying to figure out who was with her, who was against her. she was done with anything that didn’t bring her peace. she realized that validation was for parking & life is way too short to leave the key to her happiness in someone else’s pocket.”
