“You are not for everyone. The world is filled with people
who, no matter what you do, will simply not like you. But it is also filled
with those who will love fiercely. They are your people. You are not for
everyone and that’s OK. Talk to the people who can hear you. Don’t waste your
precious time and gifts trying to convince them of your value, they won’t ever
want what you’re selling. Don’t convince them to walk alongside you. You’ll be
wasting both your time and theirs and will likely inflict unnecessary wounds,
which will take precious time to heal. You are not for them and they are not
for you; politely wave them on, and continue along your way. Sharing your path with
someone is a sacred gift. Don’t cheapen this gift by rolling yours in the wrong
direction. Keep facing your True North.” – From Light is the
New Black by Rebecca Campbell
