Gooood morning loves!! This is the week of my comeback. I have a pattern of giving to the point of self sacrifice. It doesnt happen all at once but gradually, I allow myself to slip back into the Martyr pattern. Here I am to save the dayyyyyy!!!! The superwoman syndrome. Whew, Dusts off cape and puts it in the closet. You know that place where slowly but surely YOU fall back to the back burner while You selflessly take care of others. Well guess what, selfless is not that great of a concept when you have a personality like mine. If you have a tendency to be greedy or possessive, selflessness is a good principle to practice. But if you are naturally inclined to be a giver, practicing selflessness will have you homeless!!! Lol.... Literally AND figuratively. When I am in this mode, I am careful not to hurt others feelings while neglecting my own gut feelings. In other words, I ignore my own voice. I delay my own priorities to look out for others. In other words, I see other peoples feeling as more valuable than mine. I realize that because I am so sensitive to the needs of others, I get to make a choice DAILY.... To take care of ME! The sensitivity that I have is a gift, a superpower of sorts, because it allows me to be and instruments in the lives of others. So I dont shun the gift. I own it! And use it with wisdom. So the word preached yesterday was a reminder to come back to myself. Returning to The fullness of who I am without apology. To be considerate without being self-compromising. Its actually a delicate dance isnt it? I hope my journey brings light to yours 😉
