I’M GUESSING YOU CAN RELATE?

Younger and less mature me would have been irritated and frustrated at my friend. “How could she be so insensitive?!” But the wiser and older me was actually disappointed in myself! Why? Because I know she loves me to pieces and meant no harm - plus, I am guilty of saying the wrong thing to friends unknowingly on occasion. In reality, I had failed myself because I know that I am the gatekeeper of my own mind. No one and nothing can take my peace unless I allow it.
