ENTITLEMENT

My, my, my how a little education, a decent job, a nice outfit and some expensive shoes can make us feel like we are on top of the world and entitled to treat others any way we want. When did you get to be so big that you have the right to expect others to do for you, when you want, and how you want? When did you get so far up on top that others should give to you...just because of who you "think" you are?

Ladies, never, never forget who you really are and more importantly, that but for the grace of God you might not be who you are. Be confident, secure and strong in knowing who you are, but be careful not to cross that line into self-righteousness. My mother use to always say, "to me you are the world, but in this world you are one little bitty dot..." Don't ever forget that you too are a mere human and no one has to or must give to you or do anything for you. Don't ever get so big on yourself that you forget to be polite, respectful and considerate. Don't ever get so full of you and decide that you have the right to judge and ridicule others. Be proud of who you are and what you've grown to be, but always, always remain grateful...for remember, you did not get there alone - there were others that helped you and blessings that came from above to guide and strengthen you along the way.

Stay Humble!
