While growing up, I was embarrassed to tell people that I was born and raised in a village where we spent years without electricity.
Due to my parents' employment migration, I changed schools frequently, so I was always quiet when my classmates were discussing how nice and beautiful their parents' house looks.
Then, we were still living in a rented house. I was ashamed of myself, and the embarrassment spread unconsciously to me being ashamed of my background.
I'm sharing this because you need to have a self-reflection of yourself if such a thought has ever crossed your mind.
Be bold and tell everyone what you believe or what you stand for.
Fear of standing up for your beliefs indicates that you are ashamed to be associated with them.
Never should you be ashamed of your background; however, you should channel what you don't like about your family as motivation to be the changemaker your family has been waiting for.
Whatever you don't like about your background, make it the reason God purposefully placed you in that family.
You must also learn to accept yourself.
Accept your parents, and your background and work toward being the transformational agent in your family rather than crying over spilt milk.
Work on your self-esteem and envision yourself as the man or woman who will change your family's story.
Your parents might be traders or average workers; darling, love them and work on yourself to make them proud.
You are not sent to your family by mistake.
Joseph could have thought that he was sent to his family by mistake, but God proved that wrong by positioning him in Egypt; otherwise, his family would have died of hunger.
You are not a biological mistake.
You are not cheated by God.
There's a reason why you have been sent to that family.
Discover that purpose and make God proud.
Cheers to your becoming 🥂❤️
Joseph's story is an inspiration for so many reasons. He is an example of patience and wisdom. The story is a manifestation of God's greater plans that we cannot understand in the present movement.
There is no need to be ashamed wherever you birthed. A person should be ashamed only if they do not try to improve their circumstances.
