it sucks

she's ready to quit. throw in the towel.
stop what she does.
and i don't blame her.
i don't.
and if she does, she does.
i would totally understand.
but i'm so hopin'if she does,
she does so for good reasons.
not sucky ones.

along comes some nasty person and totally
rocks her boat.
makes her feel sick.
makes her doubt herself.
makes her feel awkward, embarrassed, and
plain ol' yucky.

what's up with that?
where do people get off thinking they can
do that???

if it was me?
i'd feel the same way.
i'd be ready to toss in the towel too.

i wrote her tho.
told her how much i love what she does.
how much i think it matters.
if she quits, i understand, but don't quit
because of some nasty ol' arrogant woman
who's just plain mean.

people can just suck.
and then......
there's the other ones.
the ones that don't suck at all.
the ones who keep us goin'.
we gotta hang on to them.

and we just cannot let the sucky ones run
the show. we can't give the sucky ones more
power than the ones that really matter!!!
or!!! and this is big.......
we can't give them more power than we give
to our own truth.

oh man.
that's so big.

so much easier said than done.
but so so so important.

i don't have this down. i can't preach to do it,
cause i'm not sure i can do it.

but we gotta try to remind each other....
guard your truth.
don't let anyone steal it......
specially the sucky ones!
