On Saying No

No one can take your power away, but we sometimes give others the power over us by saying yes when we really want to say no. No is a beautiful word, learn to say no when your heart tells you to.

Sometimes we agree to be loved more, to seem generous, to feel irreplaceable... For whichever reason. I have been saying yes for years, and still do, for the most part because I love the rewarding feeling of doing something for another human being, but there are times when I just can't. I'm no less kind for saying no, I'm no less generous. I am just a human being, and so is the person asking...and he or she will understand.
