Unapologetic

Think of a time where you apologized for something out of pure reflex even if it was not your fault. Someone will bump into me and I will instantly say I’m sorry even if I was not in the wrong. We are so accustomed to seeking instant relief from situations, even if it is something so small.

I steer clear from petty drama and am all for having a strong backbone and standing up for myself if necessary. However, taking the high road and squashing any conflict is far better than letting it drag out.

This got me thinking that besides the small issues that we can instantly end with apologizing for the better, there are things that you don’t need to apologize for:

1. Loving someone

2. Saying no

3. Ending a toxic relationship

4. Taking self-care and alone time for yourself

5. Someone else’s bad behavior

6. Following your dreams and passions

7. Your imperfections

8. Asking for help

9. Telling the truth

10. Ordering dessert

Let people know you are sorry when it really means something because then your heart and compassion will shine through. Be unapologetically yourself and never let anyone dim your sparkle. The world is vastly better because you are in it and there is no one quite like you. You have a purpose and do not let anyone tell you otherwise.
