Encouraging Thoughts
January 12, 2015
Ohhh this was a hard message for me to learn in my youth. I wanted to be a friend to everyone and ended up being a doormat to a lot. It was hard to learn to say no. I ended up looking like a ... well you know what. But I realized I did not have to sacrifice myself for others. Also if someone wanted me to sacrifice who I was, then they really were not a friend in the first place!
PS there is times on ones life where you are called to give above and beyond yourself but that is a specific situation. Not a full time thing.
so true!

Beautiful photos and good thoughts. Even in wanting to help others we are not called to be doormats for people. It is good to care and be open-hearted but we must be wise in our interactions with people!
Have a great day, Clarice!
