I am undergoing a world-wind of personal transitions, but I fundamentally believe that these difficult times are blessings in disguise. With reinforcers, such as the above image I came across, I know that following my intuition will only guide me to fruition. That said, I am also conscious of how I present myself to others when dealing with frustration and to be mindful that it is easy to let loose as opposed to maintaining control. So luckily I've been able to walk off a lot of tension and at the same time receive clarity.


As for why this resonates > I have learned, it is one thing to be patient and kind, yet it is another to open to disrespect and intentional put-downs. You will only receive what you accept and I have allowed some to take my kindness for weakness. So it's time to cut ties from toxic relationships and learn from this experience to strengthen present and future relationships, where I will not let the longevity of a relationship cloud when I am unhappy.

Are there friends, family or co-workers who have shown you frequent shades of their personalities that go against your morals and values. Well, you only have one life. Even if you need space to sort how you'd like to move forward, do not neglect making that space for yourself.


Remember relationships generally work in pairs. Now you both can be equal (whether polar opposites or practically twins), supportive and love each other unconditionally...for the most part. Or is your pairing more shady, like: dominant/subordinate, nonconstructive criticism, mistrust and gossip?
If you've got a great circle of relationships make sure you take the time to appreciate those you consider close to your heart. If not, what are your boundaries around those in your life and what will you wait to be pushed over the edge before stepping away.
