Will you have the last say?
Like you, I can’t go back in time and prevent the painful words from being said.
Nor can I erase their impact or make the bullies take their words back.
These words belong to the past and to the people who spoke them.
But, these words won’t have the last say about me.
The last say comes down to one simple word….
I will love myself a little more each day.
I will give love to the weak and to the powerless; I will extend love to those who work against me; and I will show love for each day I’m given.
Love will walk with me; it will watch over me and love will ground me when I’m tempted, angry or
anxious. .
Love will be my savior and my best friend.
It will continue to teach me about happiness, gratitude and joy.
Love will silence my doubt and it will protect my forgiving, healing heart from further damage.
.
But more than anything….
Love gives me the courage to realize that I get to have the last
say over my life..
