The last couple of weeks, I've really found who my true friends are. The people that help you get on your feet when you're sad, give you advice on life, make you laugh and enjoy your company.

People can be nasty, rude, hurtful and you sometimes wonder what you did to deserve to be treated by someone, anyone like that. But what we as people need to realise is that, it's never you. It's never anything you've done. They just see you as someone that's willing to take the shit that nobody else will, to realise any problems they have. My mum always used to tell me 'it's because they're jealous' or 'they have problems themselves and it's easier to take it out on you than face their own problems.' and honestly, at the point in my life, she couldn't be anymore right. Finally at the age of 20 once i've moved away from home and met new people and experienced new experiences that I finally get what she would say to me when I was younger, crying into a pillow listening to 'ugly' by the sugarbabes (yeah that really happened.. several times) So thank you mum for being patient with me for me to realise you were right! haha!

The point of this post is for people to realise their self worth. I know I did a similar post a few weeks back but I can't keep reminding you all enough. There are bad people in the world, if it be friendships, work colleagues or even strangers in the street. As long as you are true to yourself and you stay kind to one another, at the end of the day you'll be the one sleeping right at the end of the night, not staying up hours on end regretting everything you'd of said to someone and burning bridges with what could've been really good people in your life. I'm a strong believer in life giving us lessons and each life we have we learn something different. The main thing you need to learn and remember is how to act around certain people and how to bring yourself up after someone being nasty to you.

The picture above is my mirror on my dressing table. It's a card my mum sent me in a care package and every morning it's a nice reminder of how you should never let anyone get you down and grind on your emotions and change you opinions on new people. For every 5 amazing friends there will always be 1 nasty. It's all learning how to deal with people. As long as your crown is still shining as bright as you are, positive people will attract you.

Always remember that as long as you are kind and warm hearted to people, people will respect you back. Nastiness always ends up the wrong way and if you're true to yourself. Only good things will happen when life throws obstacles at you.
Much Love
