Not Everyone's Cup of Anything

My Ali got me this mug.
It reads, "Welcome to the Shit Show."
If this mug wasn't meant for me... I'm not sure what it was made for!
I love this mug for so many reasons!
First of all, it's HUGE.
Like, ice cream worthy for real!
Secondly, it adequately and rather perfectly describes the show I am running on a daily basis!
Third, it reminds me that I am not everyone's cup of tea. or cup of anything for that matter... and I'm OK with that.
Finally.
Think about it:
Not everyone liked Martin Luther King.
Not everyone liked Marilyn Monroe.
Not everyone liked Derek Jeter. (which I'll never understand)
Not everyone likes Donald Trump. Or Tom Brady. Or Justin Beiber.
This isn't going well.
I just sort of compared Justin Beiber and Donald Trump to Martin Luther King, Jr.
But, hopefully you get the idea.

Not everyone liked our Savior.
Still, not everyone likes our Savior.
And yet, He loves them anyways.
He suffered for them anyways.
He continues to advocate for all of us anyways.
He CHOSE to be our Savior anyways.

Not everyone is going to like me.
Or even tolerate me.
And, that's ok.
I'm not for everyone!
And, that's ok.

We get to be our best selves without worrying about what other people accept about that.
And, that's perfect!
