My happiness depends on me alone, no one else. I am more able every day to stick up for myself. I have felt pushed to my limit recently and have learned that it's sometimes better to just let go rather than continue a vicious cycle of trying to please/fix which in turn adds unwanted stress...and I want to be happy, not stressed. I am stronger at being able to say, 'No'. I have learned to let someone know if what they say/do offends me or just telling them to "Stop". I have chosen more than not to listen to my gut instinct. Thus far, it has not failed me...yet. I only wish I had adhered to it more...before. I am better at walking away from things that are not right for me, whether it's a situation or a person. And, this past week, I have learned that I will not put up with things I would have in the past. Here's to getting stronger

I feel like I have lived aspects of your journey just recently! This especially "I have chosen more than not to listen to my gut instinct. Thus far, it has not failed me...yet. I only wish I had adhered to it more...before. I am better at walking away from things that are not right for me, whether it's a situation or a person."

I have always gone on gut instinct and it has served me well. But lately; I have been such a fool.

Here's to you girl; here's to remaining in the strong zone

Thank you! and, likewise!

Apparently, when you treat people the same way they treat you they get offended.

Re-learning that years of service and dedication at work is a one-sided affair.

I am learning Tableau.

I'm reading through things and learning that I really need to sit down and examine what I want to do with the rest of my life and how I can fit whatever that might be into my life as it is now. It's insightful, but frustrating.

I'm learning to let my "adult" children be actual adults...the total lack of control is a hard lesson for this control freak.

When looking for friends, do not post in the looking for friends as FR do not flow from them.

I'm stronger than I thought. Not everyone can handle all the *kitten* I've gone thru the last few weeks, or the last 10 months.

I hold the power to bring death or life.

I'm learning not to be an angry person.

When we speak, we impart a small or large piece of ourselves into whom we speak. Speak deep, impart much. Speak shallow, impart less.

I've been learning to let go of what I can't control.

This one is sooooo hard for me. Got any tips on how you managed to do it? Congratulations on reaching that point, btw.

Today I took a kayaking lesson! First time in a kayak at age 69. I put doing this on my Bucket List after I lost 100#. I have now left st 166# and at 209 I felt confident enough to try it.

It was fun and I will do it again.

I'm learning that I need to stop using humor to cover for my insecurities, also to stop the self-belittling that I do with that humor as well. I've learned that I allowed seemingly innocuous events in my youth to cause more emotional scars than I was willing to admit to. The words & actions of others were like venom that afflicted me & that I must not do the same to myself or others. I am grasping that I can & must change if I living the rest of my future to be worth a damn.
That is all for now, there are more lessons to learn another day.

I would love to learn to salsa dancing if I ever hit my goals, oh & swing dancing too. That looks like a blast. Right now about all I could pull off is lumbering around like a dinosaur. That might be entertaining for everyone else though.

I would love to learn salsa and swing dancing! I have NO rhythm but I love to dance

Last week I learned that unlike my coworkers I can't secretly have a phone conversation in quiet because I have too much Damn bass in my voice and everyone can still hear me. Luckily I wasn't talking about anything crazy.
