We learn to set boundaries, right? Yay! But we must also learn to use them honestly. A boundary can be motivated by love or fear. We want to make sure that OURS are motivated by love.
Otherwise, it’s easy to use a boundary as an excuse to be lazy, rather than face the truth. Facing the truth is work; it requires courage and discipline, when we’d rather look the other way, and blame the other guy.
So, next time you decline an invitation or opt not to demonstrate your love, look honestly at why. And don’t be afraid to say, “Ouch.” Facing the truth is the tough part. Once you have faced the truth, you will be compelled to act on it.
Love smiles on you,

Are you ready to live your destiny?
