Terrific Tuesday – Loyalty
Terrific Tuesday – it is terrific to be loyal to those in your circle.
A few weeks ago a Facebook friend shared with me a Vlog she had done asking a group of women to name something at which they excelled. She talked about how the group of incredible women were reluctant to talk about what they thought was good about themselves. I was intrigued by that idea and thus the idea for September’s Terrific Tuesdays was born. Each Tuesday throughout the month of September I am going to write about something I find terrific about myself. I invite you to spend this period thinking about what is terrific about yourself and sharing it with the world.

This week I am celebrating my loyalty. Loyalty is often defined as faithfulness to a commitment or an obligation. When you are loyal, you stand by your word and your people. Loyalty is a beautiful thing, a terrific thing. I have been happily married for 22 years. One of the things my husband loves most about me is my loyalty. He can safely trust in the fact that I am loyal. Loyalty is a quality I enjoy possessing. I look for loyalty in friends, customers, clients and those with whom I associate. Loyalty, that is my deal breaker. A person who shows me loyalty has a good and faithful person on her side. A person who does not show me loyalty, does not see me.
If you are around people who are not loyal to you or to whom you cannot be loyal, you need to change your circle. There is a saying that birds of a feather flock together. So if you want to be a loyal person, you should flock with loyal people. So the question for you this Terrific Tuesday is what are you doing to cultivate and reward loyalty?

I am a Pisces, loyalty is my deal breaker as well. Great post!
MelisaSource, I am glad you like the song. Loyalty is so precious and so wonderful it makes up for a lot of stuff. When I was a west Philly girl, I called it the 'Lil Kim attitude, “ride with you, die with you, do time for you attitude.”
Now that I am a Bryn Mawr,mama, I just call it loyalty. I am glad you liked the post.
First off, I LOVE this song!!! It is so real and so true! Loyalty is a quality that is truly rare these days. I can say that is one of the things that I love about myself, too. When I discover a person, thing, or brand that I like, I am loyal till the end. It just seems to make life so much better to be that way! 🙂 ~Thanks so much for sharing!
