Make someone cry
Work. Work. Work. We all know the feeling of going day by day and putting every fiber of our being into the work we're doing only to have it cast to the side like nothing more than garbage.
Thank you. What's that? Great job? No way.
Sometimes it's tempting to try less or give up all together. Are the tears worth it? Is the sweat worth it?
Yes. Every time.
Last night, while laying in bed, I received an email (yep, I check my emails while I'm in bed and it's a problem). One of my mentors had sent an email to two gentlemen and blind-copied me. My mentor said the most heartfelt things about me and my work ethic. I literally started crying!
My boyfriend didn't know what to do. His reaction was actually pretty endearing. I read the letter to him and he only agreed with what my mentor had said.
It was so much more than what was said. It was that someone took time for me. His thoughtfulness made my heart swell with gratitude and fulfillment.
Today, I decided to tell a few people how much they matter. Even he littlest of actions and words aren't that little, at all.
Do you need to tell or show someone how you feel?
Get to it.
Xoxo,
Emery
