MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE FOR TODAY
While it is natural to feel some degree of need for the approval of others, be careful. If you find yourself unwilling to take actions that others disapprove of, you have lost control of your own life and have given your destiny to others. An excessive need-for-approval is a sign of low self-esteem, and in severe cases, a condition termed Co-dependency.
Take charge of your life! You are responsible to yourself - not to others.

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE; COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN; AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!! THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

So, very very true. It is very easy to get caught up in "group approval", and MUCH more difficult to "stand on your own". I DO like it much better going back to just being ME-hopefully a BETTER me, daily, with God's increasing help, but still just ME.
