Hello and a wonderful day to you all. This month is almost over - just flew by, even with all the weather events. Hey, spring is closer by the day - which means warmer temps for us in the U.S. and Canada! Cooler days for those way south of us. I really do look forward to seeing green!!!!
It is cold again this morning, but not AS cold. Winds have died down it didn't get as cold overnight. My road still looks very rough - not sure what the main roads are like, but I am sure better than a couple days ago.
My ex was verbally abusive for many years, and yes, it took time to get past that. Glen was my guiding light and he saved me. He taught me to love me again, and to know that I could accomplish anything.
I want to try to help people to understand that you ARE important. You do NOT have to accept the negativity, no matter who it is coming from!!!!
PLEASE repeat the affirmation above to yourself daily - several times a day - until you regain your control and your well-being.
Today start taking your esteem back and be the best version of you that you can be. Don't let anyone tell you different or belittle you - NO ONE!
As hard as it is, sometimes you just need to walk away (even with close family). Hard yes, but it can be done. I speak from experience, so I do understand.
You deserve joy and happiness in all things. Let no one steal it.
May you each be safe and healthy, and may you have a wonderful and blessed day.
You ARE loved.
This is one of the hardest things. When one is brought up being told one is bad and wrong it becomes a belief that is hard to shake. Also there is the comparison with others, which is hard to deal with. Especially when others seem so much more capable.
ReplyDeleteI like that little lamb picture. That's a good one!

We are all sooooo different and truly there is no good comparison to be made to others. Being an individual and doing what makes one happy is so worth trying to change. People are so stinking hateful, and say such awful things. Children should never be bullied or made to feel bad. I do not and will never understand how people can do that.
DeleteEach person if unique and special - no matter what others say.
Preach it! I saved both the pictures to my Quotes board on Pinterest. If anyone will treat you poorly, our rabbi calls that treachery. Verbal and psychological abuse lasts and can cause damage to one's life. By the power of our Messiah, a person can overcome being mistreated.
ReplyDeleteGood thing it is sunny! That always helps lift the winter doldrums when the temperatures are freezing for days on end. The trashman should be around sometime today. Won't be long and we will be back to normal.
Enjoy your weekend!
Yes mam, it can last a lifetime. That is what makes it so awful to me. How dare them! God can get us through anything in this life - we just need to ask and accept the help.
DeleteI have been through it - so I just hope maybe I can help someone else.
The sun is so lovely - seems we have seen a lot this January for some reason. It is usually a cloudy month. It does lift a mood.
We got missed Tuesday on trash, so won't happen until next week. That is ok by me.
Verbal abuse has become expected and accepted (I guess) in the U.S. today, sadly. Insults, name calling, bullying, treating people like crap are now the norm. Whole communities are called “garbage” and a woman professional called “piggy.” Many “Christians” look the other way. I’m glad I’m old and won’t see where this all leads. Barbara M.
ReplyDeleteIt does seem to be accepted today. People are entitled to say whatever they want, and they are also teaching young people the same thing. That is so sad.
DeleteWe all need to be our best and be a good example to others.
