Janna's Journey

This weeks message is one that I needed to hear. You see recently I had someone tell me somethings about what others have said about me and it made me feel really, really bad about myself. I felt all kinds of self-conscious and inferior and I got pretty depressed over it.  I spent a few days feeling upset and crappy about this new-found information and It wasn’t until I talked with my hubby who is so good at not giving a crap at what others think of him, help me see that I had the power to give what I had heard life or not. I have the power to not let it affect me. Yes it hurt to hear those things, but I have the choice of how I will take that information and what I do with it. I decided it was not worth the hurt I was feeling and decided it is on those who are talking crap about me. They can keep thinking whatever they want about me, I know that I can’t change the fact that not everyone will like me or agree with how I run my life, and it hurts to hear that people are judging me, but I will not let it affect me and my life. It’s not an easy thing for me to do, I am one who worries about other people and what they think of me, and I care if someone doesn’t like me or my actions, But I am getting older and a little bit wiser and while I don’t ever want to end up being a bitter person who has no heart, I’ll be damned if I am going to let someone make me feel that way again. I know I am not perfect and I am doing my best to live my life they way I think I should.   And for those who think I am not doing it right… Sorry you feel that way, but I am no longer gonna lose any sleep over it, I will just sit back and let Karma take care of things for me. 😉
