I know, I know!!! That's the thing. You work hard all your life, you generiously share everything you have ... and then it kind of backfires!
I liked Starskey's post about how God never sends us challenges that we don't need to learn. It's true that learning to say no, and stick up for ourselves are some of the most important things we can learn in life.
It's scary - becasue what if "they" don't like you if you don't agree with them, or give them what they are asking for? Well the thing is, once you really get to know who Tina is, and what Tina stands for you won't care what anyone things when you say no. You will know yourself well enough to trust that when you make a decision, it's because it is the decision Tina belives in.
