Day Ten

Someone you need to let go or wish you didn't know..

I can't honestly think of anyone..I refuse to have negative influences in my life..I know we can't avoid negativity but we can choose who we spend our time with and I try to not let myself get sucked in like I used to...my friendship with Jennifer has benefited from that..she had a lot of problems that I was allowing to become my problems..nowadays I listen but no longer feel like I have to fix everything for her..I can only be responsible for my own happiness and not the happiness of others..I also learned to say no..this was a biggie..if I don't want to do something now I just say so..I used to resent a lot of things I felt I had to do..saying no is so liberating! and surprisingly easy..no one has ever asked "well why not?" ..LOL

I agree totally..I no longer get sucked into the negativity either. I much prefer having a positive attitude..
Hope you have a great week-end..

Good attitude -- there are people I let go of that I now wish I hadn't. Live and (painfully) learn!

You are so right! It is good to be able to say no! We can choose who we want to be with and when.
