Recently there has been a lot of talk with clients/friends around campfires about unstable people. They are everywhere.! There is so much mental illness in our society. The sad part is these are often the people who try to hold others to account when there is a problem. All of the compassion and support in the world will not help. As a proprietor, I have found myself under attack on numerous occasions for things that are not my responsibility. I cannot be held responsible for the misconceptions of others.
Some people think my website has too much information. I have done this to protect myself from assumptions. It is also amazing that apparently literate, intelligent people choose to twist words to make themselves right and make me appear to be deficient. I find that at both ends of my business spectrum, both the client and the purveyor sides.
I went to LinkedIn this morning because there was a notification, and found a picture of the most recent abuser in my life grinning at me.
Living life in virtual networks designed by computer algorithms is NOT healthy.
Spending more time in nature is healthy. Of course, if one needs medication, it is a good idea to get help, and not expect your 'community' to continue to cut you slack for your intermittently uncontrollable bad behaviours. We can be supportive all we like, but it will not ultimately be helpful. Allowing someone to remain delusional does not help him/her. Rewriting history will not help either.
I have been under the weather myself of late (a severe cold/virus with complications) and found myself the target of more than one person who can smell weakness. Being prey used to confuse me. Now not so much. I've had so much practice I actually find defending myself exhilarating at this point.
I refuse to be anyone's whipping boy for any reason. When I was young I was bullied incessantly, so this took me a little while to get turned around. I am human, and occasionally make mistakes. When I am wrong I apologize. When I am not wrong I do not. People can hate me all they like for not playing into their plans. Selfishness abounds.
We meet for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Very few make the lifetime cut.
