There's nothing you can do about it!

You know I've come a "long" way in life and something that I've noticed from my past, is that people change. Some days they love you and some days they hate you. One of the hardest things for me to take in was "some people are going to hate you-and there's nothing you can do about it." Now the first part about that quote may not bother you, but that second part messed me up! When i was suffering from people bondage (being a slave of what people think about me and trying to please them/get their approval by any means possible)that second part hurt me. I had a hard time accepting that people wouldn't like me and i hadn't done ANYTHING to them. There have been people in my life that fit this quote and i continue to operate in love and keep it moving. But I've come a long way and realize that you can't please everyone. I found out that people are going to have a predetermined opinion about you and the way you live your life people are going to either learn to accept you or keep their opinion and not WANT to get to know you. the higher you go in life, the lower they want to see you. So ironically, aside from the peace of God, i receive peace from the very quote that caused me so much pain! So I urge you to continue to pursue your purpose that God has laid before you and strive to be a better person and not worry about what people think, because "some people are going to hate you-and there's nothing you can do about it!". Spread the soup!
