Personal Outer Limits

Time to set some boundaries-as the ice pick migraine screamed, “I will not let up-deal with those issues now!”.  “Fine then, I will!”, I yelled back.  What an oxymoron, worrying about ruffling someone else, while I walked around with a skull on the verge of exploding.  Putting off the matter had reaped results- on me- and they were not pleasant.  So, I set those boundaries with heart palpitating, and feelings of guilt and shame.  Then, the magic happened.  The headache lifted, and the feelings of empowerment rose.  I am clean, whole, courageous and full of self-respect again.
