Strength...

At times I feel as though I have no strength against certain people. I let "this woman" talk to me in a way that should not be allowed but I can never seem to stand up for myself. She is probably one of the most judgmental people I have ever come into contact with.

I feel like I have lost my strength in other places too. I always seem to forget the one person I can always turn too but I never know what the answer is. Which path I should choose, or if it's even a debate and I am just over thinking. I tend to do that A LOT... which is probably what I am doing as of right now. Heh... guess its time for bed.

Hmmm. . . I went to these seminars a long time ago. Dr. Lunch was great, and he had good ideas. He said some people are "toxic" for us, like we are taking in poison to be around them. We have to limit our exposure. The other thing is to not accept what they say. You can say, "I'm sorry you feel that way," and give back their feelings in that way. Or you can just remember that if you didn't ask for their advice, you are under no obligation to do what they say. It has helped me a lot over the years to just remember that someone saying it's so doesn't make it so. We can choose to igore their toxic comments.
