Let’s be real here.
Whether it’s naysayers from your social circle or family,
If they have something to say about you,
And you prove them wrong…
You may feel good at the moment.
(Especially when you see the look on their face when they find out)
Then, they’ll find something new to complain about.
You may continue participating in this vicious cycle,
Maybe even out of spite.
I’m not here to show you how to argue with facts and logic.
I’m here to let you know
You can break free from this
By proving yourself right.
When you dictate your own values
Instead of allowing others to determine them for you,
Your purpose will remain on the same path
And can only get stronger.
You don’t need to receive approval from others.
The only person’s approval that matters…
Is you.
