Don’t Let Hate Define You — Choose Honour Instead

Even though these words are over a thousand years old, they ring just as true today.

Real strength isn’t about forcing your way through life - it’s about living in a way that earns respect, kindness, and trust.

In our daily lives, it’s easy to get caught up in negativity, gossip, or the weight of someone else’s bitterness. But the wisdom of the Hávamál reminds us not to let other people’s hate define us.

Instead -
focus on building friendships, acting with honour, and living in a way that brings you respect.

Don’t be led astray by the anger of others.

What matters most is the reputation you build through kindness and the bonds of loyalty you strengthen along the way.
