Who are you fighting?

Who are you fighting? 
      
        Sometimes you are in a battle with the wrong opponent, throwing punches at the wrong opponent, getting ready for a match with the completely wrong opponent. 
Sometimes  you have got to put down the boxing gloves and ask yourself if you could be your own worst enemy. Put the gloves down and work on YOU! 
         Every choice you make has a consequence: friendships, relationships, and so on. You choose to let the wrong people around you and you will pay the consequence, you choose to love and you will get the reward, every single choice has a consequence. So before you pull out the gloves next time ask your self this question  " Who am i fighting? " 
      I say this to remind us that sometimes as mothers and because of how hectic it could be raising children in most cases without adequate help we turn to lash out on our innocent kids, spouses, siblings, coworkers,basically anybody who is in our immediate circle. We take out our issues on anyone that is available. We sulk about our mistakes and refuse to own up to them and consistently put up a fight with the wrong opponents.  

   I am learning that i must take responsibility for all my mistakes and learn from them so that i don't put up a fight with the wrong opponent anymore. I think thoroughly before making any decisions, i don't commit to tasks i cannot handle, i am extremely careful in making or keeping friendships, i do not compromise my faith and christian believes for any friendships and or relationships, and so many other changes i am working on personally. Its a personal journey and i only share because i know that other mamipikins face similar issues. 

What about if you are the problem?
Could it be you? 
Do you need a vacation? 
Do you need a break?  
Do you need a change of friendships?
Do you need a retreat?
Do you need to say a quick prayer? 
Do you need to apologize?
Do you need  to work on YOU?




     Let nomamipikin be caught in the wrong battles. It affects your ability to be a great parent when you refuse to take responsibility for your own actions. How then are you able to teach your children about integrity and honesty?


Kisses,
