Goodbye to the me who never said no. Who...

Goodbye to the me who never said no. Who overcommitted constantly. Who burned out repeatedly. If someone asked, I said yes. Didn't matter if I had time. Didn't matter if I wanted to. Just yes. I thought I was being helpful. Being a team player. Being a good person. But I was being a doormat. And I resented everyone for asking. But they didn't make me say yes. I did that. I chose that. I'm learning "no" is a complete sentence now. Learning boundaries. Learning self-respect. Finally.
