I'm a People Pleaser and a Care Giver...that's ME. Some people say what they think out-loud with no regards to others feelings. I know that can be liberating - but I just "can't".
Sometimes, I have wished I could.
I care for people and animals.... that's ME.
I am a good listener...I remember someone saying it's a virtue. You know the saying.."if you don't have anything good to say..don't say it at all"...I agree. I think more people should "practice" the art of listening.
Funny memory...when I worked at Cargill and we had meetings..sometimes I would just remain totally quiet and listen to everyone's discussion...then the leader would say, "well Betty, we have not heard from you, what do you think?"...actually, its rather rewarding. :)
Funny thing...as you grow old...how you feel when you were young...is still the same...but your body is not.
I remember Mom saying how she hated growing old - now "I" know what she meant.
Sometimes.....I would rather just walk away in silence....that's ME.
