Living with the MonSter, i have learned some tough lessons...like this one...
Some "sacrifices" are worth it...some are not.
Like having "allergy body" the day after going out and enjoying a beautiful morning...yup, worth it!
But, I have learned to CHOOSE MY BATTLES WISELY!!
Is it worth it to have "friends" when they treat you less than kindly...when you end up questioning your value? NO!!
Is it worth going somewhere, even a place you desire to be, if the stress involved is high....ummm, often that's a no.
Is it worth putting your feelings, wants, desires, even needs aside for those of a loved one? Usually, that is also a YES!! But...if that "loved one" treats your sacrifices like trash - ummmm...NO!!!
Here's my formula ---
If the sacrifice is one that will add to the quality of life (mine or another's) it's almost ALWAYS a YES 😊 If not, then it often is a no.
I'm just sayin' 😊
Good guidelines!😇😙😇😙😇😙
