My Life On My Terms – A Guest Post By AMY TEMPLE

Wednesday afternoon I got a phone call from a former client asking me to walk their dog because her husband was having a “serious procedure”.   This is a client I had to drop because the puppy was becoming too rambunctious and the client was expecting me to be at their beck and call. 


I said yes because quite frankly, she sounded sincere.


Turns out she wasn’t.  She was just taking advantage of me like she always did when I was working for her.  And the dog was just as rambunctious! 

 
I was so mad at myself for falling for it all over again.   


All those negative feelings I felt during my employment came back and I hated it!


But then I realized, what is the point?   Why give people like this my power?   I wasted too much time allowing them to control me!


It’s not worth it.  They’re not worth it.   


But I know I am, so I’m going to just keep on living my life.


I know I’m special.


I know I’m important.


If they don’t, who cares?


I don’t.  I got too much living to do.
