Dear Me,
This is a reminder… WWI was not your fault. WWII also had nothing to do with you; you were not even born yet Sheesh. The plight of starving children in Malawi will not be solved by you this week. People go through stuff and you are not required to fix it. There is no fix for much of this stuff anyways. When things seem like they are going to bring about the apocalypse; just remember its really just normal everyday life stuff and you have no control over the outcome. Yes, I know how you feel about control and no you still don’t have any!
Oh and hey do me a favor will ya? Allow folks to feel whatever they are feeling. Feelings are not right or wrong. And quit using the words “should” and “you always” or “you never” they are not helpful. You have to take ownership of your own feelings and you can’t go taking offense if others don’t follow your script. You don’t have to take everybody’s emotional temperature all the time and BTW it is really annoying when you do so knock it off.
Now after all that… there are things that you have SOME control over – paying your bills on time, making sure that everything is packed BEFORE moving day, feeding your small children, eating food with ingredients that you can pronounce, and a walk around the block never hurt anybody… those things are your business. Get off your fanny and get moving.
Oh and, BTW… Love is an action word.
Love,
You
