Still feeling relief about a decision I made and acted on yesterday. Truly I hadn't realized how weighed-down I'd been about a particular relationship. One of my idiosyncrasies has been my ability to listen to folks share without end. Doesn't matter what they talk about, I listen. The problem has been that once you make that your chief drawing card in a so-called friendship, then abuses follow. Least that's been my experience.
My husband has fussed at me for years about this. Kindly, though. He's been concerned with my frustrated expression when, once again, the friendship isn't equal. I'm the sounding board, but the reverse doesn't follow. Listeners are rarely talkers, but my goodness, we still have something to say!
Just feels like a cool breeze has passed through my life. Uncluttering is good in all forms. It's like I took the mental trash out, and the space left is a treat. Must keep this in mind.
