Right now I am learning…?
I feel like I'm always learning something. As I should be.
The best part of friendship or a relationship is the gift of oneself. So I am learning to be more transparent so that others can see all of me. Sometimes I can be a mystery, even to my close circle.
When someone shows me who they are, believe it. And then decide if I want to accept them in my life. They won't change and I won't try to change them. Some can change on their own, but most can't, and if I want them in my life, I have to be ok with it by accepting their gifts and their flaws.
I can't control everything, and I'm not perfect. But I have the ability to recognize my mistakes and take responsibility for them. The blame game gets old, and only I can control what I allow in my life. And I can't change who I am to make others comfortable.
Easier said than done.
