from the Goddess Oracle |
Whenever I feel that I
have to draw a boundary line for myself when dealing with another human- and
that human reacts by spewing insults, blame and tries to manipulate me to feel
like I'm the most disgusting woman in the world....
*I
KNOW I did the right thing by setting that boundary*.
Don't
be afraid to claim your space. I am just learning to do this, but with an important element that I did not have before: If they don't like it, that's just too bad- for them.
I no
longer indulge in old conditioning
[feeling
guilty for not being "nice",
as we
women are taught almost from the cradle]
that
would have me *abandon myself*
in
order to have someone else's approval.
Because,
in the end, those people never cared for me anyway- unless they were able to
use [or manipulate me through my character weaknesses] me as their own personal
power supply.
And
guess what? Right after I had to draw that line, just last night, all of that
'not a nice girl' guilt/crap started to encroach on me, and the person, in
their rant, went exactly there, sending a message calling me ugly and a
failure, and whatever else they could to break me down.
I took
out my Goddess oracle deck and asked: "Who am I embodying, right
now?"
Of
course, I got Durga!
I'm going to give 'menopause' a big fat kiss on the forehead today, since I may not have gotten here to this 'change' without "The Change".
If I
have 33 more years to go on this trip- I'm not trying to bullshit around with
them.
