I’m sure you’ve noticed people just being people. With all of their unique qualities and quirkiness. We don’t want them to change. It’s not our business. But, we can have boundaries.
So, each one of us has different ideas about what’s acceptable behavior toward us. Our limit. You’d think that you wouldn’t have to say anything. To anyone. They should just know. But, sometimes (a lot) 😆 they don’t. It doesn’t mean anything about us. They’re just being who they are.
This is why boundaries are such an act of love. We do love them so we have to set clear boundaries. Whether they comply or not doesn’t matter. We can still love them and not certain things that they do or don’t do. And maybe it’s not even anything to do with someone else. Maybe it’s just a personal preference.
Make boundaries that you’re certain that you can follow through on. That’s key. Once they’re set, we have to follow through. That’s the part that takes courage and self love. ❤️
Sometimes we have show people how to treat us by the way we treat ourselves. Knowing your limits is so important.
What’s acceptable to YOU?
We can still love them! But, we show them how much we love and respect ourselves first. Give them grace as they learn about what kind of person you are. A person who loves themselves ❤️😘
