It seems my last couple of posts have been rather open and raw..........I'm sorry about that because who wants to read all that every time....it's just I'm nothing if not honest. You know? And so to be even more honest..... yesterday was a humdinger of a BAD day....family BS rearing it's head again. I let it get under my skin- salt in a wound I was working hard to heal and of course it ruined the entire day.
So after some soulful conversations with good friends and G of course.(and many tears).........I had the last one of the day with one of my older brothers, T. (not a "toxic" but we have been out of communication) It helped put things in further perspective big time. You see when you are in the throws of such goings as I've had.....clarity becomes blurred.
Well I am taking my POWER BACK and drying up the tears!!! I am living in the HERE and NOW!
I am binding up that wound tight............no more salt in it...........I've had it! It's not going to happen because the "toxic's" do not define me or my life whatsoever. I know I am a good person and my brother T reminded me of that many times in our conversation. I was very grateful for that too.
Sometimes out of the ashes comes a new and brighter light.
Don't ever let anyone rob you of your spirit and self worth - even if they are related to you.
Karma, think Karma!
That is he and I below.
Last night he held my hand again so to speak.
It's a new day.
So no more sad or heart tugging posts.................
It's time to get back to the core of myself..........................

LAUGH OFTEN
LOVE MUCH
I hope you all have a most wonderful weekend!
Hug those you love, remind them you love them for who they are.
Embrace the fact that sometimes family comes in many forms.
after all....
You can pick your seat, you can pick your nose but you can't pick your relatives! HA!!
Love,

P.S. This was my email from the Universe today and I couldn't believe my eyes:
It takes a BIG person, Lisa, to accept full responsibility for their own happiness.
It takes an even BIGGER person to accept full responsibility for their own unhappiness.
But, Lisa, it takes a spiritual GIANT, who upon realizing any degree of unhappiness, decides to be the change they seek - in spite of having to endure the "same old, same old" that may still linger on for awhile.
Yeah.
