Loyalty is doing the right thing for others even when you have nothing to gain. Loyalty is looking out for a friend who isn’t able to advocate for themselves. Loyalty is looking out for that same friend even though they just pissed you off! Who deserves your loyalty?
I can start with the easy one, if you made a baby you would do good to be loyal to it. If you have parents and they didn’t treat you too bad, it would do you good to be loyal to them. If you love someone unconditionally, you probably already know of the loyalty you feel to them.
Loyalty is not in being a martyr or sacrificing to your own detriment. Loyalty does not allow you to watch idly as your loved one jumps off a cliff. Even when they want to! That same loyalty would be a friend talking you off a cliff because they love you. Even when you want to jump!
Sometimes we do not know what we want because we have not experienced it yet. Wanting something you have not had yet can be foolhardy. Look before you leap, look with your heart, and lead with love! This is how you demonstrate your loyalty.
As always, thank you for riding with me!
