Food For Thought

Roller Coaster Called: LIFE

Post from earlier this year…

I’m sitting here reflecting on this week… it’s amazing how many emotions I can go through in a day x7!!!

This week felt like a roller coaster. It started with excitement, turned nervous, turned self-doubt, turned affirmation, turned acceptance…. And that was Sunday-Tuesday’s ride.

Wednesday-Friday was another ride: resolution, turned frustration, turned acceptance, turned hurt, turned anger, turned understanding, turned acceptance, turned peace… and an emotional HANGOVER from all the turns!!!

Friday was its own roller coaster with the hangover coming along. I hit highs (laughter with friends) and lows (anxiety mixed with pride) and lulls in the middle where I just sat taking it all in.

Today is a new day. Looking back over the week, I experienced a lot, I learned a lot, and now I ponder how to use all this knowledge to its most useful and meaningful purpose.

Eliminating Toxic People, etc.

A Favorite of mine by Mary Engelbriet

Have you had the experience of someone doing the supportive yet subtle “put-down”?

I KNOW I should never let someone’s words shake my confidence. This day, I did. I let the negativity run rampant in my head… for a few hours.

The next day, I determined to let it go and move on, which is ALWAYS easier said than done. I am continuously learning how to spot and eliminate toxic people, thoughts, and actions from my life.

How do YOU handle toxic situations?
