Setting boundaries is important. I had to learn to set them. I would take mess over and over again but now. I'm not having no nonsense. Oh no. A person gets tired of dealing with foolishness. Somethings just don't need our attention. If one wants to keep tugging and tugging then they will learn to stop tugging. There's nothing wrong with standing up for ourselves.We have every right to do so. Be brave, confident, and strong. Blessings to all! :)

That's absolutely right. It doesn't make sense to tolerate all sorts of mess. Not to me!

@miniam yes indeed. I just can't. The ones that will be there will be there and if not well. That's how it goes.

You are very correct, as matured ones, we have to set ourselves as a good, brave example to everyone so that they won't pull as easily.

It should be that way. We can rise above and we can steadily mature.

How right you are. I say no all the time now. I also wont answer the phone when people think I should be waiting for that call.

We live and learn. When one gets tired they get tired. I'm not sure about a call but I do know that somethings just need to cease.

I agree we must give them signals that they can not always be given the priority because we have separate lives and busy with so many things.
