Thank You for all of your support. You brought tears to my eyes. I've said it before and I will say it again. Without your love and support I would not be making so much progress in this transformation.
I'm still quite angry. However, after your posts, emails, and texts I've decided I do deserve to be treated with respect and I'm going not going to settle for less. I've started to put the wheels in motion to make some changes.
I wrote last night about the lack of respect and drama but I didn't mention the lying. I can't stand it when people lie to me. When they lie about me they have moved to a new level. Inexcusable. Ironically, as an elementary school counselor I have these discussions with students all the time. I speak to them about how lies affect their integrity. Why is it that some people never learn that lesson? I have to think one day it will catch up to them. It's so unfortunate. I have a no tolerance policy. The lies that have been told and accusations that have been made are unacceptable.
As I was focusing on this situation tonight at the gym, I ran farther and longer than I have before. It's my new personal record. I guess anger is good for something after all. Last night a friend posted "Don't let someone else steal your joy." Very true. I think I'm still in shock at being treated in this way and that's why the anger is there. As my friend Todd said today, "Intention doesn't mean much. It is in your action where your life changes."
Thanks again. You all are AMAZING. I'm off to bed now. A full moon day in an elementary school is a little crazy. I'm worn out...oh wait a minute...maybe it was the running... :)
