Maybe TOO Much
People say not to listen to "everything" you hear or people tell you. But just saying it doesn't work for me. Since I was a little girl, I was sensitive to things people said to me, good, bad, indifferent.I am now an adult and I STILL am super-sensitive in many ways.
I guess that makes me who I am, but does it make it any easier? No. When I moved in here, for example, I was a little slow in unpacking a couple of boxes. My dear brother kept after me to do it almost daily. At one point he said, "...and when your landlord comes up...and she will...she will say something to you and..."
It has been more than a year now. The boxes were unpacked, and the landlord/relator who brought me into Bon Villa never came up for any reason. Once she knew I was taking the unit, she never appeared in the hallway again.
Words can sting more than people realize they do. The way they are sent to the recipient and said by whoever make all the difference.
