"No one can dub you with dignity. That's yours to claim." - Odetta, entertainer, songwriter, and human rights activist
Acting in a dignified manner is what I strive for now but there was a time in my life when dignity wasn't even in my vocabulary. I acted out first and never thought twice about how disrespectful my behavior was. I don't choose to live that way anymore.
These days, I pray for God to give me the grace and dignity needed to face the day ahead. I ask Him for help throughout my day if I feel my actions are not as they should be.
Today I choose to claim my dignity. Today I will walk with grace. Today I am truly grateful to have these words in my vocabulary. This is progress. More progress is to come. Thank You God!
