Tuesday....what to say

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Sometimes I think of starting another blog, but not telling anyone it is me. That way I can truly say the things that I am thinking. I hold so much in that I want to let out. Of course our ability to hold things in and check ourselves is a key part of keeping the peace. Obviously not everyone thinks this way, otherwise there would be a lot less peace to keep in the world. I guess I am a bit tired of being the one to keep the peace. If you are a horrible mean person and take it out on me, why do I have to be kind? I mean really, let's examine that. Many of us do it, we say what people need to hear, we smooth out their ego and squish ourselves down to avoid making waves. It is tiring. Let's all examine ourselves, if you are the one causing the trouble and pain, quit it. If you are the one smoothing things over, stop it. Don't be nasty and rude like those who treat you bad, but take away their power. Who cares what they think of you, who cares if they disagree? You are your own strong person and as long as you truly are trying your best to be an amazing person, then you are an amazing person already. Sometimes I need to tell myself all of this too. Going forward I am going to be working on not letting those people get to me.

Note to the frenemies in my life: I strip you of your power to make me feel bad about myself. I am who I am and that is enough for me.
