It's Ok to Not be Ok!

It's Ok to NOT be Ok! Daily, as a woman, I'm constantly trying to make sure everyone I deal with in my life is Ok. Even when I'm not Ok! I feel like it's my duty to make sure everyone else is. I'm the first to tell people when they ask if I'm ok I will gladly say "I'm not but I will be." Those who know me know that when I say that to just give me some time and space and I will pop right back into action. Learning to give people their time and space is healthy for not only that person but for the person that cares as well. I'm to a point in my life now that if you don't want/need me around, I'm good. I've made some decisions that have altered many relationships in my life and now I'm altering my relationship with myself. I'm not begging to be a part of anyone's journey any longer. If you want me there...I'm there. If not...it's Ok.

I wasn't ok with people not wanting me in their lives at one point. Then I realized that it's a choice that was made and I needed to accept that. It doesn't change whether or not I would help them when in need; however it does change the way I deal with it all. I'm definitely not one to judge anyone so whatever decision is made, I'm sure is a decision that will benefit everyone involved. We must learn to protect ourselves mentally as well as physically and spiritually. Once I understood that protection was the ultimate end result, I was ok with it all.

I say all this to say once again, it's ok not to be ok. Not to be ok with decisions that are made. Not to be ok with being someone you're not just to pacify a situation. Not to be ok with compromising your "ships" in order to be kept in one where you're no longer needed or wanted. It's ok to not be ok with making everyone else ok with you.
