Stand Up For Righteousness! Don't let anyone treat you less than what you know you deserve.

Posted By: Hija Chang on May 08, 2012


Let's face this day with the courage to stand up for justice. Most people get a gut feeling when they are being mistreated or treated unfairly. You have to face your oppressor, bully, or hater and let them know that you deserve to be treated with love honor and respect just like they do. Being in school we deal with bully's all the time. Those people who always make you the butt of the joke for their own selfish reasons are great examples of bully's. So called friends who always talk about you behind your back are examples of a hater.

We don't have to stoop to their level but we do have to let them know that we are not the ones to be treated like we are not special and equal.



Ladies and Fellas when you feel mistreated in a relationship find a clear way to communicate with your mate that you can't go for that, no no no. If you are dealing with mean gals or mean guys at work or at school just show and tell them you can't go for that. Tell them to keep it moving and go wallow in their own misery. Misery loves company so be sure that you do not extend an invitation to miserable mean people.

I am so glad my oldest brother turned me on to great music like Hall & Oates, Run DMC, and the Beastie Boys many years ago. We send our condolences to the Beastie Boys for the passing of Adam Yauch. His music and talent will live with us forever.

Today we must be strong, make our limits clear and let love rule!

Go For Yours!
