Today I reflect upon the wisdom of helping others – I have always been one who will try to help others – often even at the expense of myself.
Many people revel in their “poor me” drama and I need to be careful not to be sucked into any more of these dramas. This is my own fault as I always take the bait.
Currently my phone never stops and yet if I offer a solution there’s always a “but” or a reason why the perfectly sound solution ca not work.
I used to attract a lot of “poor me’s” . Now I recognise the control drama quite quickly and cut my losses. However I realise I have to cut some of the older “poor me’s” in my life – those people who drain my energy constantly, who eat up all my time and who give little back except put downs delivered in a “ Dizzy poor me is so busy being a victim I couldn’t put anyone down” type of way.

This week I learned a valuable lesson – I have so many great friends with whom I laugh and am uplifted and yet we support each other when the need arises – why am i devoting so much time to a poor me ?
