Keep Your Ship Water Tight!

I learned a very important life lesson one day, somehow after years of getting involved, without ever really being asked to, I figured out that, that “feeling,” the feeling I would get that made me think I had to let the emotions, problems and drama of those around me in, that I just had to react or jump in to help in an unhealthy situation - I learned that actually that old "feeling" of mine, was my cue to stay silent or walk away.  When I didn't react, when I instead stayed silent or walked away, I started to experience real peace in my life, my relationships improved, and that sick feeling in my stomach went away. 

After that day I also started to take the energy I use to expend jumping in to "help," and turn it inward toward self-care, improving myself, and my own life.  As I saw my life and relationships continue to improve, I started to realize how much time and energy I had wasted on things I had no control over, and I started to see how much I had neglected taking care of, prioritizing, and improving myself.

Don’t absorb the drama, the chaos, the negativity in other peoples lives, don’t feel you just have to “right the wrong,” that others do. Instead, keep your own ship water-tight, positive, upright and strong.
