Don’t Take Things Personally
Don’t take things personally.
That’s what I learned.
What others say about me
is only true
if and when I believe it to be true.
When I allow others words to define me,
my sense of self becomes unpredictable.
Whether I like myself or not
becomes dependent on the words of others,
not on my own sense of self.
The words of criticism and rejection
can only hurt or define me
if I allow them to
and I refuse to let you
thrust me down.
Nor do I allow you to rise me up,
because I am still then allowing you
to control and define me.
I am who I am and
was created by the great I am.
The one who created me
is the same one who maintains me,
sustains me
and keeps me from riding the waves
of others opinions.
I am who I am
and while you can say what you want,
I don’t take it personally.
I just tell myself
Love yourself just as you are.
