Be tough

Girl. Just grit your teeth. Smile. Shut up. Act tough... then BE tough.
Work. Say yes to your boss. Even if they tell you to say no.
Be reminded: Do NOT have any expectation that people at work are like people in church. Church is a beautiful shelter. Workplace can be really ugly.

Secrecy can cause suspicion and insecurity, if one does not trust those above.
But when there is trust, there is security.
The former is found is the workplace.
The latter in church.

I am thankful... that HOGC taught me that there are trustworthy humans around. Otherwise, my past sceptism will creep back and latched onto me.

Girl. Be tough. Be very tough.
