I didn’t always know,
and I’m still trying to learn,
that I can just say no—
it’s a right I need not earn.
My needs and feelings matter.
Let others cope with theirs.
Guard my joy like treasure—
then I’ll have more to share.
See my recent post “Hold Your No’s” for more of my musings on this topic.
In the notebook
I'm still trying to learn, too! ❤️
