There are days, I’m sure you’ve had them, when you have your own thoughts, your own stressors and worries. Then in comes mr/mrs/miss negativity, who couldn’t possibly say something positive, who claims they never bitch but at the same time, won’t shut up about how hard they have it.
I wish it was easier to walk away from these people, tune them out. But they are your brother/sister/neighbor/coworker and unfortunately, you have no choice but to maintain some semblance of a relationship with them to forego a whole different type of miserable.

Who doesn’t have a special someone that they wish they could eliminate from their life? That by not having them around, life may be a little more enjoyable/easy/stress-free without them?

Can I just say, family sucks? I mean, if you have a good family, be thankful. If you aren’t so fortunate, you’re screwed because you are stuck putting up with their shit over and over again. And as much as you may want to cut them from your life, it never works out.

A wise friend posted recently on her Facebook status “I’ve finally realized that cutting people from my life does not mean I hate them, it means I respect myself.”

A letter to a few people in my life:

I love you and wish nothing but the best for you. However, I need to cut you from my lie. I have my own life and issues to face and no longer wish to hear about your petty shit. The world does not revolve around you.

I realize that you will never change and never see the fault in your ways, and while I really want to help you, I have finally accepted that you are beyond help. The only person I can fix is me. So that is who I choose to help.
