Here’s a little quote I shared on social media this morning:

After I read the quote, I reread it. Then I realized that me being ‘nice’ about things when someone continually pushed my buttons and pissed me off, got me nowhere. Instead of calling that person out, and for the sake of being nice, I let it fester inside until it had nowhere to go except OUT! When it did come out, it was a little at a time. Sarcasm here, eye roll there. A little dig here and a little dig there.

In the end, there I was finding out that I was being judged all along by someone who didn’t have their shit together any better than I did! So, if I have to be a bitch now to protect my inner peace, you bet that’s what I will be!

Amid financial woes, health issues, and the daily stresses of life, I still feel more at peace now. I’m a good person, but that doesn’t mean that I have to be nice all the time! No more build-up of frustration and feeling unworthy. People can judge me based on their perception of my disability, or my life but I don’t have to be nice about it!
