Q. Hi Mom,
I’m a straight female volunteer with an LGBT organization and sometimes feel unwelcome in the community. Do you ever face this sort of struggle, and if so, how do you deal with it?
Thanks,
Taylor F.
A. Dear Taylor,
Thank you for working for human rights!!!! Whenever I feel insecure in a situation I reflect on why am I there and what is my purpose and stay focused on my personal mission. So many times I will feel insecure and way too sensitive – not realizing that other people have very hard challenges, most you are never aware of and it is not YOU!!! Be supportive, be respectful of yourself and your mission…….your heartfelt work will be appreciated and your life will be so much richer from your dedication.
Mental Hugs,
Mom
