Those 2 words

 


Kindness may speak volumes through actions, but the echoes of gratitude have the power to amplify its impact. For in expressing our appreciation, we not only uplift others but also strengthen the bonds that kindness creates. Let us remember to speak loudly with our gratitude, for it is the language that resonates long after the act of kindness has passed.

The Bare Minimum.

 



I learned a lesson today. 

I finally got it through my thick skull, to stop going above and beyond to make people happy and to stop caring what people think of me. It's a waste of time, and some people are not worth it. The manner of which I was spoken to this morning  in regards to constant attempts to be regarded as nice and cool and thoughtful was so heartbreaking. I learned a lesson today. Like everyone else involved, as of today, I will do the bare minimum. I will give the bare minimum. I will not show up with gifts. I will not offer to pay for anything except for myself. I will not offer to pick anyone up. I will not offer to drive anyone home. I will not offer to pay for others. I will not stay behind to help clean up.  I will not arrive on time. As soon as people begin to leave, I will do the same. I will not call to ask if they had a good day. I will do the bare minimum. I will not stand out anymore. The days of people-pleasing are over. Periodt.

Action/Inaction

 People will show you if they love you, if they have time for you, or if they could care less if you lived or died, based on their actions or inactions. 

Don't believe me?

Stop reaching out to people and see who will check up on you.  Some close relationships I've had ended immediately when I stopped calling or texting. Years have gone by without them messaging me once, which I found odd because we used to hang out all the time, and it took my not calling or texting to realize the friendship was only on my behalf.
