You just have to move forward and do the best you can and accept that some things you can never totally grow out of. Some things like that follow us through our whole lives. Great take on the topic!<br />Kathy<br />http://gigglingtruckerswife.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564863484894692249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7009720758305493333.post-73580034585062776122012-08-12T00:36:45.085-05:002012-08-12T00:36:45.085-05:00Kat, I think we all go through tose ups and downs ...Kat, I think we all go through tose ups and downs in life...

Replay that situation again and again and don't be reduced to a puddle of tears. Take a deep breath and tell yourself,until you believe it, "I do NOT deserve this. I will not shrink!" Through your chest out and stand your ground. It takes a lot of practice, talking out loud to yourself, but it is something you can learn. It's worth learning. The feeling of standing up for yourself is amazingly powerful.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285427147723972295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7009720758305493333.post-8865524363279761532012-08-09T18:16:26.449-05:002012-08-09T18:16:26.449-05:00Jo, I think it's all in how our inner alter-eg...Jo, I think it's all in how our inner alter-ego makes us act. I call mine a demon because it renders me helpless. You see, it doesn't make me speak up and defend myself. It makes me shrink into a wimpy puddle of tears. You see, I was the one on the receiving end of the confrontation. I stood in shock, mind blank and didn't know what to say. That's why I hate when it comes out. It makes me such a sniveling weakling.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7009720758305493333.post-84164945447713876752012-08-09T17:32:00.469-05:002012-08-09T17:32:00.469-05:00Surprising to me that you call them inner demons. ...Surprising to me that you call them inner demons. I think we all NEED to be able to say what's on our mind especially to people we care deeply about. They need to know what's going on inside. If something happens that causes confrontation, we need to be able to speak up and clear the air. The key is to always remember to be kind, though honest and clear. No name calling. Remaining calm is not easy, but very helpful. <br />You are entitled to speak up for yourself and your family and your friends. You are entitled to say what you think needs to be said. Then when the air is clear, life goes on with better understanding. Everyone knowing they cannot always have what they want, but sometimes you can!<br /><br />They aren't demons, my friend, they are your defense or offensive weapons...it's good to learn to use them wisely.<br /><br /><br />♥Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285427147723972295noreply@blogger.com
