I've finally come to the decision that I'm important. I no longer have to be overly sweet to people who mistreat me. It has taken me over 30 years to realize this fact.
Work has been stressful this year. We have yet another new administrator. Every new boss who walks through the door feels the need to re-invent the wheel. This is not okay. I now just shut my door and continue to do what is best for my students and me.
I've also eliminated so called friends from my life. People who drain me are not welcome in my life anymore. I refuse to be taken advantage of anymore. If you don't care about me, why should I let you continue to be in my life?
I guess I have grown up. I'm taking responsibility for my own happiness and well being. You're either with me or against me.
Fuerte,
Monica
