I never quite fit in when I was a teenager. One way was listening to my friends' big drama fests. Or so I thought. I started to discover they weren't ever there for me when I had a problem or needed help; or even for fun, because drama WAS their fun.
I notice I am still like this from time to time because it is part of my caring nature. The difference is I can check myself sooner, and like lovelylizard says, I just say no (sometimes directly to my friends, but mostly to myself).
these six words leapt out from the sermon I heard in church this morning. Thanks Pastor Jodi. (I attend a Baptist church which has two lady ministers on the pastoral team.)We can live with peace and joy no matter...
