In the beginning it was all fun. A joke here and there. You snicker but inside YOU know it's not right. Without knowing it you feed the behaviour and you teach that it's okay by your laughter.
You see things happen and think that it's okay, it's only once and something that can be overlooked due to their history. YOU can change them you think. YOU can make it better.
One day, you stop that argument due to the truth that it's easier to simply say nothing than to argue. You silence YOU.
Another day comes and they over look your value. It happens in small whispers and ends up louder than a freight train. It doesn't matter what your thoughts or feelings are, you let it happen and now it reflects on yourself and how you are at fault for letting it go.
As each day passes you neglect your heart and your mind.
Then one day, it hits you. Being put away, being shelved and allowing this behaviour is not okay. Stop waiting for someone to stand up for YOU and start doing it. Needing to stop this becomes a priority, not something to be hidden away and neglected. It's okay to want to fix others but it's more important to fix yourself.
Starting to write this years ago, based on life's experiences, it's grown to more than I could have imagined. With views from all over the world, I would rather spread words of kindness, showing that Philanthropy is something inside each of us. Never costing a dime, always being more than we anticipated.
