Dary,
It is so educational! Thank you so much for sharing this email. Please let
Jen Rogan know that I do really appreciate her for circulating this article
by May Angelou.
I would love this article with no reservation if the word "God" is replaced
by "Supreme Being." I believe this article then becomes more "politically
correct".

So it shall read:
Hater
By Maya Angelou (Modified)
A hater is someone who is jealous and envious and spends all their time
trying to make you look small so they can look tall.
They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing is ever good
enough!
When you make your mark, you will always attract some haters...
That's why you have to be careful with whom you share your blessings and
your dreams, because some folk can't handle seeing you blessed...
It's dangerous to be like somebody else... If Supreme Being wanted you to be
like somebody else, He would have given you what He gave them! Right?
You never know what people have gone through to get what they have...
The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don't
know my story...
If the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, you can rest
assured that the water bill is higher there too!
We've all got some haters among us!
Some people envy you because you can:
a) Have a relationship with Supreme Being
b) Light up a room when you walk in
c) Start your own business
d) Tell a man / woman to hit the curb (if he / she isn't about the
right thing)
e) Raise your children without both parents being in the home
Haters can't stand to see you happy.
Haters will never want to see you succeed.
Most of our haters are people who are supposed to be on our side.
How do you handle your undercover haters?
You can handle these haters by:
1. Knowing who you are & who your true friends are *(VERY
IMPORTANT!!)
2. Having a purpose to your life: Purpose does not mean having a
job. You can have a job and still be unfulfilled.
A purpose is having a clear sense of what Supreme Being has called you to
be. Your purpose is not defined by what others think about you.
3. By remembering what you have is by divine prerogative and not
human manipulation.
Fulfill your dreams! You only have one life to live...when its your time to
leave this earth, you 'want' to be able to say, 'I've lived my life and
fulfilled 'my' dreams,... Now I'm ready to go HOME!
When Supreme Being gives you favor, you can tell your haters, 'Don't look at
me...Look at Who is in charge of me...'
Pass this to all of your family & friends who you know are not hating on you
including the person who sent it to you.
If you don't get it back, maybe you called somebody out!
Don't worry about it, it's not your problem, it's theirs..Just pray for
them, that their life can be as fulfilled as yours! Watch out for
Haters...BUT most of all don't become a HATER!
