Seems like these days the world around me is shifting just like the globe that it is. One minute it seems nicely settled and everything is going great. The next minute I have a headache from the stress of everyday life. I wonder if its me I am doing something wrong. Is it me I am not handling things a certain way? Is it me I allow situations to cause me to stress?

Certain things need to be done, but I have already extended myself beyond. Finishing that project is my goal, however, knowing that the other person can assist but will not is troublesome. It is troublesome because I offer to assist them but do not get the same when I need it. I am a nice person, but what happens when you are too nice and no one offers to help you? Has this happened to you where you help certain people out but when you need help, they ignore you?

I need to complete my tasks just like everyone else. No, this world was not built in one day. However, when help is available, why can’t they assist? Why can’t they say, “I’ll pick you up today or I’ll do that work for you?” Why do I have to get a migraine trying to figure out how to handle everything on my own? Just because I can do plenty of things, does not mean I always want to do them. This is frustrating.

Being kind is the right thing to do, but when people take my kindness for weakness, that turns things around. I have come to a point in my life where it is just easier to walk away from those self-centered people who take and take with no regard to give back. I would rather have peace and tranquility over a piece of a selfish person.

  1. I agree! When you try and be kind to others they don’t always reciprocate. I’m learning boundaries are also important so we can make sure we are properly caring for ourselves. Thanks for sharing! 🤗

  2. It’s hard to know what to do with those everyday stresses. Hard to balance it all out, I can relate! Maybe do what you can and don’t let others’ lack of helping make you bitter. Keep looking up!

    1. Sometimes in life you get to appoint where you need to cut people off not for being mean or anything but for a peace and calmness in your life. Love them form a distance while like my blogger friend Dawnsaid (see her comments in this thread) “I’m learning boundaries are also important so we can make sure we are properly caring for ourselves.” That is a huge factor as well.
      Thanks for reading Stephanie 🙂
