Today's OneWord: Earn
Earn
by Belinda Roddie
Everyone told me that I had to earn their respect, so I fought for it. I fought, and I labored, and I clawed for it. I sweat, and I bled, and I cried for it. I humored them as much as I could while squandering away the last scraps of both my youth and my soul. And what did I get back? Premature gray hair and the same ol' bullshit. So, no. Now you gotta earn my respect.
