Morning Mantra: "You deserve people who make you feel chosen not tolerated."

Taylor Swift has a song about being tolerated in a relationship and it got me thinking about some of my relationships.  Am I doing more to try and get them to choose me?  Am I putting up with behavior that I shouldn't to feel included?

We must never accept being relegated to the status of being tolerated in the lives of others.  When we do, we succumb to feelings of unworthiness or accept treatment that does not honor our inherent value.

When you accept an unequal division of emotional labor it makes you feel insecure and uncertain. You should not have to wait for someone to show their love for you when it's convenient for them. You ought to be a deliberate, constant choice.

This is not limited to interpersonal interactions. It concerns working environments where we may not feel appreciated, where our contributions are seen as disposable.

Therefore, it is crucial to recognize that everyone deserves to feel chosen, every time, regardless of the context.  We should all work on coming to terms with our value and resolving to be treated as more than mere possibilities. 

We should always be the ones who feel treasured, loved, and respected.
