Don’t want to be a doormat?  Do not lie down in front of the door…



I am not a fan of self help books. I have had them foisted upon me time and time again, thanks to well meaning doctors~friends~family.

I was having a bad day: No a very BAD day. I was driving in my car and had on Dr Laura. Do not stop reading. I love opinion~advise shows. She was talking about her new book regarding surviving a shark attack on land. Did I mention I was having a very bad day?

I went home and downloaded her book.

Did I mention the day was going poorly?

Her book starts out with a personal story on how she was betrayed by a very close confidant and friend. She is honest. She displays her underbelly.

I like this book! I am going to get sympathy! Someone who understands the hurt of betrayal from a trusted person in your life is Earth shattering.

Betrayed once is sad. Enter the question: Did you set yourself up for a continuous series of kicks? Did you smell a skunk and look for a kitty; hear galloping and looked for a Zebra: or did you see the truth about someone and turn a blinds eye?



Oh oh….

Could it be this simple?

I had become a door mat. I must have liked it on the ground or I would have stood up dusted myself off and refused to be stepped upon.



This book is actually helping.
