Last night I went through so much!! It all happened after reading a comment of @Chanie Twersky in this post. I cried ALOT realizing ALOT!! I realized that all my life I was ignoring the wants and needs of my soul and putting others first even if they don’t deserve it… If I could help - I always did. It felt like my duty. It felt like if I didn’t help when I can, I’d be a bad person. But some people do not deserve our energy, time and efforts. Reciprocity is a key factor. And, I am not saying to do things for others with an expectation of receiving something in return!! I am saying, that if there is a proven track record of this person consistently treating you like a doormat, set healthy boundaries!!! Protect yourself!!! Takers… just take! It’s up to US to lay those boundaries. And something to be said about… sometimes we just outgrow friendships. And we got to let go to let in… Do you regularly audit your “friends”?
