All of us have gone through unpleasant situations where we have had to deal with inconsiderate, irresponsible and selfish people who bring endless drama into our lives. We sometimes stick by them because we feel we can help them with their issues but more often than not, instead of improving, they get worse. They become energy sucking monsters that as a result, leaves us drained, burned out and downright miserable.
Well, I am tired of having to deal with all that crap. I'm tired of constantly feeling down, sick of being taken advantage of, and being around toxic people who keep draining my energy is just not for me anymore. I did try to make them see what they were doing wrong but nothing I said made any difference to them because they are just too self absorbed. They are going to continue being inconsiderate, irresponsible and selfish with no care about who they are hurting. Their actions and behaviour, that's on them. Does it mean I have to continue taking all their crap? Hell no! I decided to make some changes in my life for me. At the end of the day, only I can find my own inner peace.
So, I stepped back. I stopped worrying about what I would look like in their eyes. I stopped entertaining excuses and lies. I kept away from those who tried to dictate my life and those who tried to change me into someone I am not. And I stopped over analyzing the bullshit in my head.
I started paying attention to myself more and I started loving myself more; even the parts that I feel I am most flawed. I distanced myself from those who do not understand me. I deepened my personal, inner understanding of my self. I expanded my vision on life, looking at the bigger picture and the paramount version of it instead of focusing on the everyday little dramas. I tapped more and more into the gifts I am blessed with and allowed them to path my way. I began trusting my intuition more so much so that I don’t even question it any more. I deepened my faith in God because I know without a doubt, that He wants me to succeed, to fulfill my purpose, and He is constantly opening ways I never thought would even be there for me.
I am sharing this not because I'm arrogant or conceited but merely sharing my own personal experience of what I did when I felt 'stuck'.
I can say for certain that anyone can come out of any situation that no longer serves them. It is okay to leave people behind, to walk out of situations just so you can be in a much better space and place in your life. You have the right to 'disappoint' those who claim they love you, but want you to be stuck in misery because it’s convenient to them.
Anyone can start anew at any time, in any moment, at any age. Be the best version of yourself without the gravity of negativity dragging you down and have a life of joy and purpose, filled with love. Stop making excuses for yourself and others. Let go of whatever it is that keeps you stuck and start loving yourself more. Stop being someone's punching bag and stop letting others walk all over you. Stand your ground and learn to say no, and let go. Once you get rid of the negative energy, you will automatically attract positive energy flow into your life. You will no longer be a magnet for negativity, for bullshit, or for abuse of any form. With all the bad seeds gone, you will have more space for joy, peace, and love in your life.
It is possible to find inner peace. It is possible to heal your soul. All you need to do is decide how badly you want it.
