Women are born with strength and versatility. We multi-task and adapt like no man can. We can run a multi-family household (while working a 9 to 5) or run a multi-million dollar organization with success and accuracy.
With all this skill, I am amazed that we can still assist in helping keep the drama in our lives. And then act as if we don't have a clue why things aren't' going right in our lives. And don't get it twisted, this includes me. I am no different. We all seem to allow toxic people in our lives. When they should possibly never be there or only temporarily. We let them take up residency. I believe certain people have seasons in our lives but when the universe/God/Karma/the higher power (whatever you believe) takes that person out of our lives we work double time to keep them in. Then question why things won't go right or why you have such bad luck. Maybe we should do what we never do - look at ourselves. People can't stay in our lives we if don't let them. Take control of who influences your world. Why do we keep people around that do not contribute to our lives in a positive way? When things are not going right we need to do something we don't do normally, again, look at ourselves. Are we part of the problem? Check yourself first. A lot of times we are allowing drama and issues in our lives that we could prevent - that makes us part of the problem!! I am speaking from experience, been there done that, trying not to do it again.Don't just stand at the complaint counter, be part of the solution. Is that easy? No, but do we really want to live with the alternative?
Be good to yourself. Love yourself. Because if you don't why should anyone else?
Your Girl,
