Ask Yourself This Question:
Why Do I Allow Myself To Be Drained and Give My Power Away When The Person I am Upset With Exercised Their FREE WILL and Made A Choice That Is/Was Aligned For Them?
*REMEMBER: Allowing Yourself to Be Drained By Another Person’s Free Will To Do What Is Aligned For Them, Demonstrates A Deeper Need For You To Heal. This Behavior Helps You Recognize Your Own Control Issues, Expectations of Others, and Unhealthy Attachments. It Helps You To Determine Whether or Not Your Love Is Unconditional…Or Does It Come With Conditions? People Make Choices To Honor Themselves, Not Necessarily To Offend You. Be Mindful.
