Swift kick in the ass

When you have to put your stern face on and give some real tough love it can be difficult. Loved ones when they need to just get a smack to the face, you just have to buck up and give it to them. Now sometimes it may be you that needs it as well, so remember, if someone were to give you tough love, how would you want to hear it?

Today I got to see my sister again. The last time left me devastated, and my heart broken, but I learned quiet a bit from it. I learned what I will and won’t accept from others, my own boundaries, and that I have family that isn’t blood that supports me. She had come down for a ticket, and has been in a really dark place for the past year. Slowly falling down further, and with our family being the way they are only made matters worst for her. And what I got out of it was to be supportive for her, and provide her a truth, a truth I hope she will here and change from. Not for me but for her. 

It’s scary to see loved ones fall so hard, but I know that she will rise and find her own way as long as she follows through with it. I think that when she see’s that she can do it on her own that she will truly rise further then she knows. I have hope for her and our relationship, and that makes me happy. 

Do you have someone in your life that just needs to hear the truth? Would it be conducive to help support them with that? Make sure it comes from a place of love and not a place of of anger or judgement. With anything make sure to come from a place of love and kindness because that’s all we need to grow.
