So, we are about half way through summer...did you realize that? I did because we still haven't got a house to move to.
We looked at two houses today, the other two we were to look at were sold! One was a definite no...no place for trailers or truck except on the street. The other house would have worked but not well. Our realtor said to wait for a couple more days. The second house has been on the market for quite a while so it will be there for a while longer. In the meantime, she has several that she wants us to see this week.
So today's focus is to ponder a question. The question...Are you giving yourself a break from other's expectations?
You know, living up to what your parents wanted, your spouse or significant other or even your kids?
Instead, think of what your own expectations are. They are your priority.
When my children were young, there was a cultural expectation that mothers' were to put everyone's needs before their own. Unfortunately, that just doesn't work well. If the mother did not take time to fill up her own needs, she would have had very little to give to others.
So think about your own needs and expectations...and give yourself a break from fulfilling everyone else's expectations. It will relieve a lot of that stress you have been experiencing.
Talk with you tomorrow...
