Life can slap you at times

Yes, it can and I am no different than you.
I have had a week of interesting events which pulled the rug from under me, but I was not going to unpack and live there.
When others attack you and are untruthful it can cut to the core of who you are.
Yes people can be spiteful and may not want to see anything other than what they require.
Once upon a time I would have to have the last say get my point across as I was desperately trying to be heard in the world.
I now know that others will react and do things which are for their highest good not mine, but it’s my choice how I choose to deal with the situation.
It depends on the person you’re dealing with onto the course of action you may take. If history tells you the person won’t listen or meet you half way or except to listen to you, there may be no point in entering into conversation as a desired outcome may not be reached and more damage may be done. Walking away from this situation is not about admitting your wrong or accepting what others may say is ok. It means you are rising above the negativity and the need to enter into a situation with no options.
I ask myself what have I learned from this?
Is it ok the way I am been treated?
Is it ok to allow this to continue?
Is this person adding value to my life?
What is the impact of continuing this relationship?
What do I have to lose if I step away for my highest good?
What do I need to do?
I am listening to my gut and my needs.
I can walk away at any time
I am ok
I am enough for who I am
I accept others may not see the issue at hand
I don’t need to tell my side of a story to be heard
I don’t need an apology
Mind games don’t have winners
There is not one winner
I am stronger and bigger than those who gang up
I speak my truth when I know I will be heard. Time moves on!
