If you want to make a difference, the next time you see someone being cruel to another human being, take it personally. Take it personally because it is personal!
You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.
You cannot shame or belittle people into changing their behaviors.
Shame corrodes the very part of us that believes we are capable of change.
Are you the adult that you want your child to grow up to be?
The truth is, rarely can a response make something better - what makes something better is connection.
