Born To Stand Tall

Giraffe

noun/ jəˈraf

A tall, long-necked mammal born to stand tall like you were born to rise above it all

There it was scribbled onto a plain old sidewalk floor. A not so plain reminder of empowerment. A much needed reminder to stand tall. A playful and friendly reminder of strength and resilience. 

It's as if the common sidewalk floor was trying to communicate something not so common at all. 

When people try to bring you down, stand above it all. Never forget that you were born to stand tall despite what any negative spectator tells you. At least that's what I think the sidewalk floor was trying to say. Who will ever know?
