Boundaries

How to keep healthy boundaries in your relationships

You know sometimes you...
just have to go with the flow...
And sometimes life hits hard and low...and it seems as if it's all happening at once.
However those are the times you can learn the most from.
If you feel abandoned, that does not last, however people may not be on your time frame if they have things of their own going on and even if you feel alone, learning to self soothe is a great powerful tool so that you do not *need* others. You do not need that reading, that feel good reading, that high of hearing that the outcome you want IS coming, despite the struggle and time that remains. Despite the hard work we need to do in the meantime. And we need to learn that *need* can tug at the energy of another, and they may not react well to that.

However, when we learn that the problems of others are not all ours to solve, that we cannot carry their burdens for them, learn their lessons for them and when we learn to say no to others to maintain our boundaries we are getting closer to creating our own future and living our lives as opposed to allowing our lives to happen to us.

Figure out who you can depend on, but do not abuse that or over use it. Know who will be there for you ( and it does not always have to be a reader that you are paying by the minute) and be reasonable in your expectations of another, and if you would not do it for another, why expect it from them? Respect and know that others may not be always there for you if they are suffering on their own. And know that most people will see things through their own filter, if we can understand that, it sure will go a long way to work through the stuff that the universe in it's infinite wisdom seems to think we can handle. And in time, we see and know and learn we can indeed cut through the lessons....and that the universe is indeed wise...beyond what we could even imagine.... and ain't that grand? Someone bigger than us, that knows more than us is driving the bus we SO want to control........and they have the MAP so take your hands off the wheel..........so trying to peek and control is not the best idea.. as they say...Let Go and Let God....

This is an excellent blog Joan and so well said. I love the analogy with the bus for it is very true that there is definitely a higher power at work in our lives.  Thank you for the insight Joan and Bless you this day.

It is indeed a blessed day. Sometimes we forget to be grateful for what we have, and we need to remember that despite difficulties and obstacles that we learn from even if we don't want to, we always have so much to be grateful about.
