A lesson learned: To say no is perfectly OK. You/We have the right to set our boundaries. You/We have the right to allow or not allow someone into our homes/life. It takes real strength to recognize situations/people for what they are. Some are good and some not so, some are meant for a lifetime and some for a moment. Some are teachers, while others students...some are companions and some are challenges, but none are without merit! We must each look hard and truly appreciate the gifts that are placed on our path, learn from them and then move on. At the end of the day, we carry our family with us and are never alone, so building a crowd to keep from being lonely does nothing more than weigh us down, slowing our progress and keeping us from the real joy of living. If I use you, then you must cut me loose...if I take you forgranted, then you must let me go! If I give nothing then what use am I. A leech actually has a purpose in life, but to recognize it is the real lesson! Breathe life back into your existence by examining those things in your life that are sucking the life out of you by breaching your boundaries and challenging your spirit, but not actually giving anything in return. Redetermine your boundaries and then make them strong, true friends will appreciate you for them, those who only use will only abuse them and then you must determine the course you will follow! Do not be a victim of those who use the I am a victim and you must be there for me tactic! I am looking into the mirror today and speaking to myself, but I am sharing with those that are facing the same challenges. I hope this will give you strength to stand up for yourself and make your choices, whatever they may be!
