"Childhood is tough. Childhood is rough. All the other kids on the playground are telling us what's wrong with us and why we're not okay and the bad part about it is when you're 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12 you believe it. You don't have the strength to reject it and say, "That's not true." You take it all in and make it part of your truth." Neale Donald Walsch
I'd like to add - most of this statement is also true about adulthood....especially when those others are your family and friends. It takes a tremendous effort to shake off the dust and move on. But in the end, you find - you're worth it.
