While browsing some of my favorite blogs which I tend to do every day or so I came across a great clip. It was a clip from the Oprah show. Now I of course like many of us think Oprah is quite the wise man and something specific she said in that clip reminded me of why. She was telling Serena Williams who happened to be doing her pedicure o_O yea I know but I didn't write the shows concept....but anyway she was giving her love advice. She said to the multi million dollar tennis star: "don't ever dim your light to walk with someone else.."
I feel like way too often we try to tone down who we are or how successful we are to appease other people around us. I don't know about y'all but I worked hard as hell for everything I've accomplished this far. And I wear it like a friggin girl scout badge.
Don't feel bad for no longer being able to relate to some friends because they're still hugging the block. Don't try to change to fit into a group you don't want to be in to begin with. Don't think you have to change yourself for a significant other..they should know what it is from jump. Don't think you can't have an opinion because you're young, or you're a minority, or you are a woman.
Believe me nothing in this world comes easy so when it does come there's no way in hell I'm hiding it...I bet Oprah never dimmed her light..and neither should you!
