You Never Know Where Kindness Will Come From
If you follow me, you know I write from time to time in a series I call " 52 Guiding Lights." They are stories about life lessons. When I have enough (52), one for each week of the year, I will put them out as a book. I am over halfway there. Here's the last one, in case you missed it. It covered deception, lying, and lessons learned from the fairy tale “The Emperor’s New Clothes.”

The Little Frog's Guide to Self-Care
This week I received a box of affirmation cards in the mail. They came from a friend that is another sister friend from 40 plus years ago. I celebrated a recovery birthday last week and she sent me a gift in celebration. She is an artist and I would have preferred a painting, but I will have to tell her that.

Partners
Some people keep changing partners to avoid changing themselves. This statement is true for most people, but not all. If you are the one who is always looking out for others and always the one showing up for them, how does that make you feel? I know from experience that this kind of life can leave a person feeling drained, exhausted, and angry. I would spend so much of my time trying to help others with their problems or situations that I couldn’t see that I was the one drowning and no one was coming to help me. Sometimes we have to change partners to grow positively. However, I will save this part of the conversation for another day. The main point of this piece is to shed light on those individuals who think they can keep using good people as their own recharging station. These individuals keep changing partners because they lack the intellectual capacity to look inward. These people know what they need to work on within themselves, but instead of looking inward and making the positive changes they need for themselves, they shift the blame onto others so they do not have to face themselves. Some people find themselves in extremely toxic situations with others because they have mastered the art of manipulation, scare tactics, emotional drainage of others, and trauma dumping on others. These types of people will always change partners because they do not know who they are, so they don’t know what it is like to feel or even experience true love. In fact, they will never know what true love is or even looks like because they are so used to fake love on the outside of them that they cannot see that they are the ones with the internal issues, and when someone has taken the time to work on their own internal traumas, here come the spirit soul suckers.
