...but I will like myself regardless of their reactions.
Reactions or actions.
A thought (or lesson) that has been (and still is) tough for me to accept.
A woman I know failed to deliever on something that she had promised me (sending me some cookies she had baked) . At first I was hurt, then angry at her when I found out she had sent them to others and not me. I let her action alter how I felt about myself. But her failure to follow through does not mean I have to think less of myself. Perhaps she had her own reasons that are not known to me.
