The binds that tie

Boundaries. I was raised to believe I wasn't entitled to them, so is it a surprise that at times I don't believe others are as well? I always think that drawing boundaries is some element of an insult, good fences and good neighbors be damned.

I think it's time to change that. It's time to realize that I too have the right to draw the curtain, the line, whatever, just as others do. It's time to understand that setting boundaries doesn't mean pushing people away, doesn't make people lonely (least of all you), that it's healthy.

What a concept.
