This year I’m shedding dead weight. I’m leaving behind the things that don’t bring me joy. I’m leaving behind friends who I thought were friends. I’m leaving behind the shame and disappointment that I have placed on myself. I’m leaving behind trying to do it all on my own. I’m leaving behind disappointment and hurt. One thing about me is that I will carry someone else’s burden around me all the time. It’s not my burden so why am I caring about it? Because I care about the people who are in my inner circle. But one thing that I noticed is that there are some people who won’t carry around your burden. They barely call or text you, but when they are going through something you are the first one they call. Hello, 2022 Colleen is putting herself in a position to win and heal. No more will I be more to people than they are to me. No more will I go out of my way for some. I’m leaving the dead weight that has held me down for years in the past. My focus is firmly on me. I haven’t put myself first ever. There is a first time for everything. 2022 is a year of letting go and becoming better than before.
Conversations on finding and loving who I am 
It sounds like you’ve been a wonderful person to all. Hopefully, some of your kindness has shown the not-so-kind ones how to treat one another. I also know some people who seem to be thoughtless, but if I don’t expect anything from them, then they will not disappointed me.

BOOYAH girlfriend! SPEAK! 🤜🏼🤛🏼 I think many of us find or have found ourselves in the same type of position. Because you are such a compassionate person, you find that others shove their baggage on you, and because you care so much, you end up crushed, bruised, and swollen from carrying around all of their weight. Stick to your guns and move ahead. Otherwise, you will constantly find yourself at the back or better yet underneath the bus! 🚍 You got this Colleen!!! 👍🏼

Wow. Wow! I was just talking to a sister about this very subject. Told her I was DONE with one way relationships and being on call for the whole damned world when the world could give two damns about me half the time. Awesome read! Think God and Life are leading folk to shed things, rest and do us for a while. Awesome post!!
