my MOTHER said ⁠♡

Once my mom said, “Sometimes people hate you because of the way other people love you,” and I really felt this. It’s strange how love can become the reason for someone’s hatred. Some people can’t stand seeing you CHERISHED, VALUED, or GENUINELY LOVED because it reminds them of the AFFECTION THEY NEVER RECIEVED . They confuse your light with arrogance, your peace with pride. But it’s not your fault that your heart attracts warmth. Never let their bitterness make you DOUBT YOUR WORTH. The way others love you is a reflection of your soul, something envy can never truly destroy.
