Michelle Obama Instagram – No one can make you feel bad, if you feel good about yourself.
Those are the words my dad would say to me if I was ever feeling down on myself when I was younger. Every time I think about my dad, I remember his unconditional love, his constant words of wisdom, how he always made me feel seen, how he made me feel heard. Even though he is not around anymore, I carry the lessons he taught me everywhere I go. I know a day like #FathersDay can be tough for many — it was tough for me, too, when I first lost my dad. But once I realized that he was always with me and that I could honor him every day by living out his values, I started seeing the world, and my place in it, with so much more strength and resilience. It has made all the difference.
I’d love to hear about a memorable lesson that your dad or a father-figure in your life taught you in the comments. | Posted on 17/Jun/2023 21:30:29
