It’s been a long week.
This morning I had a fractious moment with a fellow seminarian – someone who stood in my space and who refused to back away, I just did not have the energy to deal with him. It was a carry over from yesterday when exactly the same thing happened – said individual demanded my attention and when I was unable to respond in the way he wished he gave me a piece of his mind. Granted, I was equally grumpy when he took me on, but it happened again today when he attempted to tell me how I should conduct myself in future.
I just walked away…
I gave myself a hard time for not being able to deal with the situation better. But then …
Ray of light!
Hope of hope!
I saw this…
I have let myself off the hook …
I’m so proud of you for taking good care of you . . . it’s *not* always so easy, is it? Especially when someone else wants (demands?) more than we are able to give. And how can it be real purdy (pretty) when we are approached in that way when in that very real space?
Ya know, a wise sponsor of mine used to tell me, “Deb, sometimes the best we can do is ‘damage control’.” I always loved and appreciate that, especially on those days when I am sooo low energy and walking away is what I must do to preserve my sanity.
I am also very grateful for this little graphic – it’s *perfect*
and respectful
and honoring
and truthful
and . . .
Love you!
