Saturday I cried three times. Why? Because reality just really sank in....some people are really selfish assholes. Sorry to type it out, but it's so very true. This reality not only popped my happy bubble, but it also shattered my heart.
I created my own little world where everyone wants to help each other and every cares for each other. In my world, everyone wants the others around them to succeed. Every once in a while someone just has to pop my bubble and remind me that it's just my inner circle that I have invested in who feels that way. There are too many people who are too focused on themselves. It truly breaks my heart. I want to believe that everyone is good and caring and wants to help others for the simple fact of helping others.
We've been working on a project for a really long time now. Our emotions have been played with again and again and again. Saturday we made the decision to just let it all go. I wouldn't say we are giving up, but for right now we are done with disappointments. The next six months we have too many exciting things going on and we are going to focus on those upcoming events. We are done with dealing with selfish people who are just looking out for themselves for a while. I allowed them into our bubble. They tricked their way in and now we are kicking them out!
Doctor it hurts when I beat my head against the wall........then don't beat your head against the wall. That's pretty much how I feel right now. And boy does my head hurt. I have sat down. I have licked my wounds. Now I am dusting myself off and moving on.
To say I am disappointed is an understatement. But I know God has a plan and it's time to step back and let things work out in his time. Let go and let God!
Sad face.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that people who have their own agendas entered your world and showed their true colors. Let me reassure you that others will be drawn to your project who are drawn to the project because it is what needs to be done. Stay strong. It will come to fruition.
ReplyDeleteMy bubble has been popped repeatedly, yet I still want to think the best of people. Even the ones who truly are selfish A**holes. Hope everything is better for you soon. Sending love and prayers your way.
ReplyDeleteafter 49 years, 44 of them to a trumatic quad my advice to you is to live first for God, second for your husband and young family as time passes very quickly . Take time for your self and grieve when you need to. Trying to stay strong all the time can make you ill as it did me until I learned I can't be all things to all people. "Huggs" to you and your family on you great journey in life making wonderful memories.
ReplyDeleteObviously I don't know what it was but assume it had to do with helping people. So because of these mean, selfish people, those in need won't get the help now! That really stinks! Why do people have to be that way?!
ReplyDeleteThe greatest comfort we can receive is knowing that the Lord is our refuge! Praying!
Psalms 46:7, 10-11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.(10-11) Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
