since being with Matthew I have realised I tend to apologise for things that happen whether I am involved or not. I tend to feel guilty when bad things happen to my friends as if I could stop it. I tend to feel guilty when I do nothing in situations where they would also do nothing. I tend to feel awful unless I have pushed myself farther than they would for me.
Realising this is good. And helps me move on.
Realising how many people have taken advantage of this trait of mine and my need to make it up to them somehow for something that is not my fault has not been so good.
I think I shall see if I can get a copy of The Nice Factor. I think I may need it.
I hope you all had good weekends. Mine has been lovely and involved morris dancers dressed all in black, acrobats, beefburgers with bacon from Borough Market, a long walk through the streets of London and lots of sleep and housework in preparation for the move.
Take care

I did have a good weekend. Thanks.
Glad you had a good time too. I want to go to Borough Market again soon.
Those books sound interesting honey, and if you want to change I hope they work for you. Personally, I think you're lovely as you are, but then I place a pretty high importance on niceness, kindness, consideration and being true to yourself (qualities which you already have in spades, and which the authors of those two books seem to have more than a little disdain for). As for the ten tips offered in that article, they are some sort of Claire nightmare, I must confess....but then I, in my hippy-happy-clappy way, believe in karma. Good begets good. Eventually. :-) Do what makes you happy, honey.
