Have you ever read an article along the lines of 'habits of thin people'? these articles come out every so often - and i stumbled across one this week, and something about it has stayed with me.
one of the points that the article made was that 'thin people make time for themselves; they take care of themselves- making sure that they eat right, they have time for exercise, time to de-stress, to get enough sleep. and sometimes that means that they say NO to people.'
And then the article went on to say that we had to take better care of ourselves.
here's what i'm thinking - whenever a person starts making changes to take care of themselves, that generally means that they're NOT doing something else that they did - often for someone else. and this means that the relationship between the two people [or more!] is changing.
and that change alone can cause other problems or issues.
wasn't there someone famous who said that change was dangerous? in some respects, it is, even if we hope that it'll be a good thing!
