We will not always find ourselves surrounded
By people that are worthy of our best gifts and efforts
People who never seem to ‘get it’.
And so the natural next step is
To not do anything more than necessary
Because its like casting pearls before swine
‘They don’t appreciate me’
‘They don’t deserve my best.’
And maybe you’re right.
Maybe they don’t.
But in the end you will be remembered for what YOU did
Not for what they did to you
Not for what you could have been
Nor for the the great excuses that kept you from showing up.
You owe it to yourself to do your part.
You are on this planet, in this season
At your current location – for a reason.
Do what you came to do.
