When people start subtracting from your joy, peace and happiness instead of adding to it it’s time to exit the relationship with maturity – that’s what I realized this morning.
It’s 12 : 10 PM on day 1608 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, chat to my gran on Skype, read Jeremiah 25, feed myself Uppumavu with chickpea curry and a banana for breakfast, publish my Disability of the Day feature, learn one new thing – February is the only month that can pass without a single Full Moon – promote my Educate Generations campaign– $1 770 raised so far so grateful
This morning I was tweeting with someone about something that was going in her life and I tweeted in part If people don’t respect you or make it their priority to contribute positively to ur life they dont deserve to be in it which is true when people start subtracting from your joy, peace and happiness instead of adding to it it’s time to exit the relationship with maturity life’s too short why spend it with people who make you miserable and bring out the worst in you.
In general, I agree with you.
We may, sometimes, be called to serve others who do not receive us kindly, favorably or happily. We can hope that those commissions would be short term works (piece works) but you never know. [laughing]
Then, there is the other challenge – that in our speaking and living in faith, this can be uncomfortable, disruptive and challenging to our loved ones. I am always hoping, however, that they don’t cast me from their heart. Or life.
Interesting point of view. I’m sure they would never do that.
