People really enjoy underestimating me. A situation developed where someone I thought I could trust broke that trust and started spreading lies about me. I was hurt but I was not very surprised considering my history with this person. I called them out and they did what they usually do. DENY EVERYTHING. I could have let the situation go but in this healed version of Char I stood my ground. I asked for an apology. That’s all I wanted, some accountability.
It’s amazing how many adults refuse to be accountable for their actions. This was my most challenging day yet on speaking about gratitude.
Do I talk about self-respect and standing up for my worth?
Do I talk about self-esteem and how previous versions of myself would have stayed quiet and ignored my feelings of being betrayed?
I went for a walk and listened to my favorite Spotify playlist. 🎶
The music surrounded me with the melodies, tempo and lyrics. I felt relief from my angst-filled emotions. I was less conflicted and knew standing up for myself is what I was supposed to do. There are too many situations where people remain quiet when they shouldn’t.
A homeless man asking for water should not be turned away.
A mother asking for help getting winter clothes for her kids should not be ignored.
An apology should not be balked at when the other party is in the wrong.
This is why music is what I am grateful for on Day 7. What are you grateful for today?
We are halfway there! How are you feeling?
