[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 251391, member: 3444"] Star's right -- 18'. Yellow Pages. The thicker, the better. If you can't find one big enough, might I suggest a Webster's Dictionary? But before you hurl it, look up the word "NO". Then practice saying it. Out LOUD. It's a very useful tool for preventing people from taking advantage of you by getting you to do more than they deserve from you. You owe explanations to no one. You only need answer to yourself. Speak your own truth. That's all that matters. People are always going to have an opinion about you, but what you think about yourself is what matters most. Here's a quote from a favorite book of mine: "If others don't appreciate us, do we really want to be around them? Do we need to let the opinions of others control us and our behavior?.... Who we are is all we can be, all we're meant to be, and it's enough. It's fine." I'm sending you hugs and prayers for inner peace, and strength and courage to be yourself regardless of what others think. You're right. You ARE good. You DESERVE respect. I think you will find a way to get away from any situation that makes you feel otherwise. [/QUOTE]
