When did I become timid? Hesitant to speak my mind? When did I decide it was more important to get along and have people think I was a good person than for me to stand up for myself? Why isn't someone who is strong still good? I am feeling a major attitude adjustment coming on - a product of changing my geographical latitude? Or a product of realizing that I am now self-employed, and therefore in charge of my own life on a level never experienced before.
No more Mr. Nice Guy? Or no more doormat. At one point in my life, I was astonished at how strong I was, how purposeful, how determined. I want that woman back.
Do all women go through this as a result of our caregiver roles, our mediator roles, our peace-keeping at all costs roles? Jefferson said a little revolution now and then was a good thing. Hmmm. I think I am about to start a revolution in my own little world, starting with a change in attitude. Starting today!
