Those who mind don’t matter..

 I had written a few blog posts about a variety of things but kept coming back to something I heard the other day.. 

\

It’s simple yet truthful.  

Being that I moved recently, those who I had become acquainted with, I felt had my best interest at heart.  It turned out, they didn’t.  In fact, they never followed through with their word, nor did they with what I thought was a friendship.  They simply vanished.  Well, after some weeks of reevaluating and waiting, I stepped onto my next journey in this life.  Unbeknownst to me, there was other plans that life had and I was to trust it.  

I was partly hurt due to the simple fact that not only did I wear my heart on my sleeve, I also made myself as vulnerable as one could and it was met with shame.  I would lay at night, feeling less of a person.  In the last few weeks though, it came to me again.. remembering what I’ve shared with my children over and over.  

If you can lay your head down at night, knowing you did what was right and tried your best then you should know it will be okay.  So, I did.  I reviewed the last few weeks and thought.. I did what was right and I did my best.  It’s not the job of another to cast a stone, to gossip or to judge.  I know who has that responsibility.  

If someone in your life does those, remember this.. Those who mind, don’t matter and those who matter, don’t mind.  

I’ll move forward with this life, on this journey and sleep better knowing it’s going to be okay.
