Strength.

 Every day I pray to god for more patience. Patience to deal with anger, patience to deal with frustrations, patience to deal with negativity and most importantly, patience to deal with people. People are so draining and I do not, not one bit, enjoy spending time with the majority of them. And it's not always issues with them that prevents me from spending time with them, it's issues that I have too. I do not take for granted the norms I have set for myself, I can't tolerate misbehaviour, I can't tolerate rudeness, I can't tolerate bullying of any kind, I can't tolerate hate of any form whatsoever, and in a world where a lot of this is commonplace and therefore vaguely acceptable, I fall under the category of a weirdo whom almost nobody wants to spend time with. But you know what's been extremely gratifying? My own acceptance of my high standards, my own acceptance of my character and code, my own acceptance of my choices and what I choose to stand by. I won't get carried away by anything. Nothing can break my conscience, nothing can break my mind. I'm strong and powerful, just the way I am. And so are you. 

Love, peace.
