Always such a treat to find one of your posts in my mailbox! I find that old age has brought a lovely Freedom, not always to Do what I want, but certainly to Say what I want.
Life is too short to put up with persons who bring you down. Or bore you. I choose my activities and reading more carefully, because Time is more precious now.

Dont ever stop doing what you do. You are a gift and a blessing.

Hi Susie,
Ooooh – that’s awesome. It’s nice to hear that your friend apologized too!! Wow, that doesn’t always happen. I love that you felt a sense of clarity and wellbeing when you walked away – what a great sign of doing the right thing!

Hi Beverly,
Yes, I find that doing it the soft way – and still doing it – is working well for me. I’m glad to hear that it’s working for you too!

Thank for sharing. There have been times when I was too nice and didn’t cut the person off. I just had a convo with a friend and she was going on and on about people I had no idea of who they were and the convo was pretty boring. I finally said you know I don’t even know these people and she got it. I’m holding to my boundaries more these days.

Awesome job! Boundaries have been hard for me too. Staying true to myself by saying no thank you, is a soft way of reinforcing my boundaries.

In reply to Z Egloff. I was recently in situation that required using this same boundary setting response. When leaving I felt a refreshing sense of clarity and wellbeing. The next day I received an apology from my friend.

Wow!!! Wonderful sharing and example. And what a gentle reminder that we all do have the power to politely and simply say I have to go or I have to leave now. Love you two! Cindy
