Rejection

It's been a while since I've logged in! I've been too busy dealing with school work and balancing CCA activities. It was a tumultuous week last week, with me having a test on wed and lab on Tuesday and Japanese homework due on Tuesday. Phewww! I'm so glad those are over! Oh not to forget my CCA falling on sat.

Well, today I'm gonna touch on the word 'rejection'. Don't get me wrong, it's not about rejecting guys/girls in relationships. It's about rejecting people when they asked for help. And don't get me wrong as well. I didn't meant it to be a selfish person and not help anyone at all. It's just: do as much as you can.

Just yesterday, my friend showed me a website which describes the various horoscope and it has described my characteristics fully. I'm an easy-going person and if anyone needs help even for the minor things, I'll assist them. This is true. I didn't realize it until days ago, another friend of mine (whom I was helping) told me I've always been helping people and never rejects them when they need me. I just brushed her comments aside and said that my help was nothing. However, after reading the horoscope, I thought to myself 'maybe I've been doing a lot for others'.

Helping others is a good thing. It's basic morals. Basic courtesy even. However, there is a limit to helping people. If it's on the expense of your time or money, maybe you should try to reject. I've always been saying okay to anything, either eating in an expensive restaurant when I'm broke or helping friends carry heavy load or even having last minute calls to accompany people to go out. I'll just about say okay to anything. Is it in me? I'm not sure. But I do know one thing. Some of this 'okays' are on the expense of my precious time. It's time for me to reject certain calls of help and start walking my own life and helping myself.

Rejection is not all that bad. And even if people rejected your help, it doesn't really mean they're selfish. It probably meant that they have no time and are busy with their lives and activities. There's always a two side to everything.

I've been helping others and I believe I've come to a certain limit. It's time for me to say no and walk my life journey well.
