Being loyal

I just made a conclusion this morning: people does not aprecciate loyalty. People tends to take things for granted when you are loyal. Being loyal does not seem to be something that you can get a benefit out of it, but a way for others to step on you since you will most likely not complain or react like others would.

It's funny how some very important lessons in life, we will only learn when we have been hurt, when others have letting us down. I wish I knew this before so I could act differently and not having this feeling of frustration when things turn the way they have turned for me personally and often also on a professional level.

Today I wish I could just change and stop being and/or behaving in the way I was raised. I want the people to start feeling like I'm not a piece of forniture and that I'm not someone/something that they can give for granted. I want to just be able to show them my value and that one day, I will just walk away because I shouldn't be taken for granted!
