I stopped hurting myself. I am a human being and as such I have likes and dislikes. I have a crowd I gravitate toward. I have been told that I “should” befriend people I can hardly tolerate looking at. I have been told I should have interest in things I detest.
I have been made to feel down, bad, depressed, blue, embarrassed by allowing myself to be mistreated inorder to be accepted. I did this. This problem was not forced upon me. It was a problem I chose. The acceptance in feeling down, empty and left alone was a choice I made by using the excuse of telling myself “they are family or they are my friend.” Why would I continue being around people or in situations contrary to me?
I had to fully acknowledge that I do not like hurting myself. I knew a better feeling existed because better was there before being in the presence of pain. I had to be fixed solid in my mind and spirit to not permit or allow the anger or hatred of anyone to dictate my spirit/ how I feel.
I had to say ‘no’ to others only after first saying ‘no’ to myself because tolerance has no place in human suffering. I hurt myself waiting for a change in someone who is permanent; when I should have been moving forward toward progress and peace. And just like people, the same use of ‘no’ must be exercised in situations, places and/or things that must be avoided or refused in pursuit of the greater good, the better self, and the healthy mind and body.
I stopped hurting myself by being still with my actions and definite in my answers.
