Gratitude

I’ve shown enough gratitude to others even more than they deserved it. I believe that is where the people pleaser in me came from. Making sure to use my manner and truly help others feel good about themselves. Sometimes it was a good thing and helped me feel good, other times it was not a good feeling.

Showing others gratitude and happiness is something that doesn’t come easy but taking the time to really help put a smile on other’s faces can end up being good for everyone. There does come a point and time when you want to do what’s best for you, even if it means not always going out of your way for others.

I have extended myself to more people than a little bit and find at this point in my life it is better to set boundaries and not work so hard to make others happy. Time to make me happy, time to do what’s best for me, and in the meantime, still smile and let others see my joy and even help someone else feel happiness but no longer at the point of making myself miserable.
