They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. I say true enough.
Do you have this habit of always giving, giving and giving more; wanting to please people; always saying yes. I don't think it's a good thing. Personally, I feel bad whenever I say no. It comes to a point when I think I am a superwoman. That I can do anything at any given time frame.
Funny how you always find yourself nodding to other people's request while everybody is conniving against you by saying no to every favor you ask. It makes you think. Is it because you don't have the what they call as convincing power? Or is it just the part of you wanting to be reciprocated of the same level of helpfulness that you showed to everyone.
Okay. You know the rules. It is better to give than to receive. Do not expect to receive anything when you give something. You can hear yourself uttering, "I know. I know." But don't you get tired of always giving? How about a two-way street? You are aware that the world is never fair. But how about they give too? Or you reject them? Or you receive something too? Thinking. "I just wish I am not the person I that I am. I wish it was easier for me to be honest and have the voice to say how I really feel." But sad to say, being honest and being harsh is the same thing for you. Same as being helpful and being too kind. They go hand in hand.
