It is in you, not of you.
Apologies are unfathomable if disrespect is a character trait. Some folks are just naturally disrespectful!
Repeat offenders are no longer a concern to me. I used to be filled with overwhelming sadness when someone I cared for disrespected me. Now, I understand that none of that has anything to do with me. It may hurt; however, my decision is to distance myself from those who move naturally in a disrespectful manner when I am concerned.
I like where I am going, I am enjoying how my logic is developing and focused on becoming a solid individual in ALL THINGS.
I am moving forward and releasing all the things that make me "feel a way". In order to have new experiences, I feel the urgency of letting go of what once was. Some things will have to be ripped away from me if they do not belong, because I can admit that in certain situations and with certain people, my ignorance is true bliss. Love is truly blind, but true love brings clarity.
ALSO, I am growing to understand that surrender in ALL things will come with some tears and grief. On the other side of disrespect is freedom.
On the other side of anything I consider a boundary is one step closer to the path that I belong on.
Another person's pursuit of their own happiness, even if it hurts me in the process, is actually a part of the lessons I need to learn in order to live the life that I desire.
No pain, no gain... In ALL things, the saying is true.
