tolerating always turns into resentment. at first, you call it patience, then love. but what it really is, is self abandonment. every time you swallow a boundary, excuse a pattern or silence your discomfort, something inside you keeps score. eventually, the bill comes due.
The Law of Responsibility
Take personal responsibility for your life.
Look inwardโnot outward.
We are all responsible for how we respond to the circumstances and situations that we encounter.
That should be empowering, not frighteningโno one can take that away from you.
