"Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu "

"May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom".
Lately I've been having a lot of conversations with my daughter
about friendships, relationships,
and why some people can be so
unkind.
It's not always easy to explain why someone might not like you with no reason- sometimes it's misunderstanding, insecurity, differences in values, or things we may never fully know.
What matters is how we choose
to show up.❤️
It's hard at any stage of life, but especially for teenagers, to figure
out who is real, who is genuine,
and how to deal with fake friendships.
You can't make everyone like you-and you shouldn't have to. The right people will like you and would like to spend time with you❤️
I truly believe a real friend is someone who speaks well of you even when you're not around.
So choose kindness. The world
already has enough negativity-
we can be the change, starting with ourselves. Teach your kids kindness, show them what it looks like, and
remind them they don't need 100 friends... just a few real ones.
I'm so grateful for my circle-the ones who are always there, whether near or far.
You know who you are ❤️Thank you ❤️for being you and for being there for me.
Real friends... not just friends on facebook 🤭
