I am sorry about this but I had to get it out some place.

I am tired, so very tired. Tired for people not hearing my words when I speak. People trying to manipulate my thoughts and feelings. I am tired for struggling through and being pushed aside for an ideal that isn't really the truth. LISTEN TO ME! really hear what I am saying. Don't just pretend to listen and then put your own hopes into my words. How many times do I have to repeat the same thoughts but in different words? I have no more words let and I hate to repeat myself.

I am honest and straight to the point, difficult to misunderstand. They still do, I try to make myself clear but they hear what they want to and discard the rest. I am tired of being pushed in the direction they want me to go. I am tired of digging my heals in and saying no. I am tired of trying not to hurt their feelings. I am just tired.

Marilyn, I am here to listen if you need to talk, and I will not put my own feelings into your words, because I know how ANNOYING that can be, and hurtful when it comes from someone you trust to listen to you.

Thinking is just what a great many people think they are doing when they are merely rearranging their predjudices.

Oh dear soul sister, I know EXACTLY how you feel, I have been there myself many a time. It's like I'm sick of always being the good samaritan etc. You should've sent me an email, if you were down about this, you naughty girl!! Please do so in the future Maz!!! Good on you for ranting and I hope you feel better for it (HUGS)

Do you hear somebody speaking???

Just teasing Marilyn. Actually you'll get an amen from me on that one. It is one of my biggest complaints in life. Though I say people listen but do not "HEAR."
