How do you say "no" and not offend someone?

'Cause let's face it: Most people are NOT that emotionally mature to be able to accept a negative answer where they initially expected a resounding "yes".

And how do you handle the uncomfortable feeling you have afterwards, even though you know there was no wrong doing on your part?

See I'm asking because I'm no more emotionally mature than the majority of people I would like to say no to  and at some occasions. I don't want to be one of those people in glass houses either...

Hmmmm, something to think about for the New Year.

To those who actually reads my ramblings: May you have a less confusing year than this one. May you find what we are all looking for : CONTENTMENT.....and this is not a cliche.

Think about it:

When you eventually find the path in life you've dreamt about, you're excited, 'cause you know where you're heading.
If you know where you heading and start working on getting there, the pretty little things that used to irritate you start to fall by the way side.
When all that pettiness is gone I can only assume that your focus is much better.
When you focus your goals align themselves almost on their own; and as you achieve them you're actually happy that you did that.

And then at last...you're content.

For me, being content means that you or not constantly chasing. You've actually stopped to appreciate that hard work actually leads to results that you actually want!

Anyway, that is my uninformed opinion.

Hope someone reads this and it helps them.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hi! (Sounds optimistic doesn't it???)

But alas, I have to disappoint you. I"m STILL searching....
I refuse to let that get me down. I WILL find my true calling , whatever that may be and however long it may take and whichever path I have to follow to get there.(I have mentioned I don't exactly know where "there" is yet, right??)

Until I share again: Ciao!
