The worst thing in the world is not rejection it’s lack of validation – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 9: 13 PM on day 176 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself a chicken polony sandwich  for a snack – it turns out that lent starts on Ash Wednesday for everybody and I  just got the date wrong LOL 🙂 –  tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign for a few hours – no luck  – feed myself rice and curry for lunch, tweet about my campaign some more – still no luck – feed myself butternut  for dinner and watch TV.

Today as I was sitting in front of my laptop raising awareness about my campaign I couldn’t help but remember all the people in my life who didn’t even bother to reply to my donation requests and in that moment I realized that I would rather hear a no than get no response at all because I believe that even when you say nothing you’re saying something and what those people were saying to me was you’re not even worth 5 minutes of my time. Do you ignore people because rejecting them would be too uncomfortable? 🙂
