Big girl panties! I've got them all the way up!
I have made a decision. I will love working in the cage. It seems to suit me fine. Now that I have learned the process it is not even that bad. My whole outlook has changed thanks to two earthly angels and you know who you are. Generosity and love warms me coming from the two of you. Sometimes I need someone to give me a push and sometimes I need someone to say "Gee, you need help, girl, do this." Damn it, now I'm crying again. Your love overwhelms me. how fortunate I am to have everything that I need.

Nothing happened at work today that was any different than the last week but I HAVE MADE A DECISION. That\'s my point. I can either play the victim forever or I can say that I am sick of it and take charge. I am responsible for how people perceive me. If they perceive me poorly I must to something to change their perception. I\'ve got it now! Hurray!!!
Our perception of situations are everything and it feels as if you are taking this as a growing and learning more about \"you\" kind of situation. It is so easy for us to fall into victimhood and it\'s something we all do from time to time because of this earth school. Yet, when we slowly climb out and embrace the learning that is contained within it everything changes, doesn\'t it? You are sounding \"lighter\" already around this dear Colleen and I wish you only the very, very best whether you are in the cage or out! :) It takes courage to look at ourselves and realize the kind of impact we are having on others. Hey, any estate sales this weekend on your agenda? I still want my $ 5 dollar mansion! :) Love you sweet woman. Joanie
I\'m the same way as you Colleen...I am so sensitive to what people say or do. I take it as its me the Victim, for what ever!!! It is so much easier when we make a desision, and stick to it.. My desison totally relaxes me. I can feel at ease.. Our brains use up so much energy, I read, it takes 40% of are brain just alone without even thinking... Know wonder why we are tired all the time. ITS how we think......I think positive, I get energy.... I think negitive I feel drained.... Everyday is a struggle for me, and I have to stay in a positive way, or my day will be ruined...Love & Hugs, Kelly
Congratulations for making this most positive decision, Colleen. Isn\'t it wonderful to have such great women in our lives? *Hug* Adrianne
Colleen, I like how you\'ve been willing to look at things and change your thinking! It is so very true about how our attitude affects our whole way of life around us. I read that first comes thought, then action. So if we want our actions to be positive, we need to have positive thoughts! It\'s definitely a choice we have to make on a constant basis. Sometimes we are so used to thinking along a certain way that it takes quite a bit of effort to tell ourselves, \"stop! I\'m NOT going to think that way...I\'m going to start thinking THIS way!\" My life has been so much happier since I started looking at ways the glass is half full instead of half empty. There is a definite choice to be made.Politicians do it all the time...put a positive \"spin\" on things! I feel that if we keep our bodies as rested as we can, do all the things we need to and stay \"well\" it\'s a LOT easier to see the glass half full! When I\'m tired...it\'s such a challenge to see ANY positives...! Love, Donna
I think you are \"choosing\" wisely...it will make day to day life easier for you. Love and hugs...Karen
WoooHooo!!!!!! You go girl! I love you so much!
Attitude is everything!
That is a step in the right direction. Hugs, Angela
So true ~ it is never about what other people are doing or feeling or how they are behaving towards us ~ it is about what we choose to allow into our thinking and our lives. Bravo to you ~ with you all the way!!!
Love and hugs ~ Debbie
