Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

You’re doing a great job holding yourself up and holding on. The effort is making you stronger. So why are you so down on yourself and doubting your efforts today?

Stop listening to the nay-sayers, the critics, the people who don’t even know you. None of them are walking in your shoes or know what you’ve been through. They can only feel better about who they are, by putting others down and trying to stand upon a pedestal they didn’t earn.

If you’re not with people who support you, or build you up and stand behind you; then you need to move on. Don’t allow others to keep you down because they’re afraid of change or moving forward. That’s not your path and you don’t need that kind of conflict in your life.

If they won’t talk with you or won’t agree to work on the issues at hand, it maybe time to simply let go and move on. You can’t learn lessons for others. But you can’t allow them to hold you back from the lessons you have to work through either.
