At times I find it hard to say no. At the core of that is the fact that I really do care ....that I'm a softy for someone in need. To a point......

At the opposite end of the spectrum I hate being taken for granted and being used. It takes me about .06 seconds to go from placid to bone shatteringly angry when someone thinks I "have" to help them out.

Somewhere in the middle is a happy medium and that's where I want to be now. I don't mind helping someone out but they are going to help themselves first. No free rides and no hand outs.

Ultimately we must all find our "happy medium" ....our Center. That's my goal for the year.....
