You Can't Stultify Me!

Okay, so I just learned a new word while playing Word Coach on my DS. Stultify: To prevent something or someone from developing into the best possible state. My thought of the week is simple - whether it be a job, a friend or a lover, do not allow anyone to hinder you from being the best you possible. At the end of the day, the only constant in life we have is that man or woman in the mirror. We owe it to ourselves to at least try to grow. Sometimes simply being in a certain environment or around certain people can be stultifying. In those instances it is necessary not only to think outside the box but to kick the walls of the box down and open up to new possibilities.
