It's raining... and I am at a point in my life where I find it very difficult to focus on positive things... I'm sure you all know the feeling, nobody can be a cheerleader all the time... But I figured this is the exact moment when I need to try even harder to remain optimistic... stupid? perhaps... but I will try anyway... and in today's post I will defend the view that knowing when to walk away is better than shoes... see if I manage to convince you...
We all have needs and it is our duty and responsibility to try and have them met... no, we should not settle for less, we should protect ourselves and make it clear when we want something, out of someone, a relationship, out of ourselves, out of a job, out of life... we should try and find out what it is and go after it even if we are afraid and insecure... we should ask because very often this is the only way to receive... we should be ready to fight for our right to happiness! But at the same time we should be able to see a hopeless situation, we should know how to pick our battles... no, not every one is winnable... and the casualties..., oh, the casualties are so very often pieces of our souls...
We should claim our space, we should open the cards on the table and let the people in our life know who we are, how we feel and what we want. They do have the right to know! But when that which we receive in return is not good enough, then it is our task to walk away... other people will only give what they can, nothing more... no point in keep asking for more... if it's not what we want, we should seek it otherwise... don't lower the standard, just find a person who fits it! ... Chances are that there is at least one person out there willing, and happy, to give us what we need and more than happy to receive what we have to give to them! Isn't this a chance worth taking? ;)
