One of my favorite quotes is the following.
“Never give rent-free space in your mind to tweebleheads.”
In other words, you determine how a person affects you. It could be that a person has less status than a human cockroach to you; in that case, you wouldn’t lose a moment’s sleep over whatever they may do.
But what if the person who is negatively affecting you… is someone you love or have to take care of?
How can you make yourself “right” with such a position?
Trying to make sense of it all becomes a futile endeavor. And yet, you find yourself *having* to deal with these people; your own Iron Code forbids you to ignore the situation.
It’s in cases like these that I often will say, “Take back your power. Refuse to give this person rent-free space in your mind – evict them as a tenant.”
You can still take care of someone while disliking them, sometimes intensely.
Life was never promised to be fair, you see.
But that doesn’t mean you have to forego taking care of yourself as well.
Once you accept the idea that taking care of yourself is okay, and that boundaries are a Good Thing… you can begin to take *back* your power.
One thing, though… what happens when you are presented with a thorny related situation – and you have to choose between what is ‘easy’ and what is ‘right’?
That’s something I never thought would happen to me…
But that’s a tale for the next time. 
Enjoy!
