Trying to stay patient- part 6

[Zues126]

I consider dropping the rope two parts.

1) accepting your single life. Emotionally detaching from STBX and not letting their actions and words control your behavior, self worth, or appreciation for life. Focusing your energy on what you can control- YOU- vs trying to control their behavior, thoughts, or words.

2) usin your detached and accepting attitude to TRANSCEND any negative feelings and act in ways consistent with your CORE BELIEFS. So instead of reacting out of neediness, fear, hurt/anger, dismissal, impatience...you can act out of compassion, respect, good will, and understanding.

The better you drop the role the easier it is to DB as you aren't in your own way. Then you can effectively be and act like a better person to do the best job fighting for your M possible, all while protecting yourself from the roller coaster and enjoying the life you have been given.

Note- it may be a good idea to map out your core values, and think about how a person that felt that way would reply. It's amazing how much resentment can come through if we're not in a healthy state of mind. Work on your mind first and it will work out.

Did I nail it? Do I make the sticky board?

Still trying to do all that, but it's getting easier...
