Obligation, Gift Giving, and People Pleasing

life Dec 24, 2019

Does gift giving feel like an obligation?

Does it feel like you have to give a gift just to please someone. Finding that perfect gift just so they don't get upset or even worse you end up on their 'naughty list'?

The seasons, the holidays can be stressful times for anyone, including myself. No matter your intentions, why is it you can still feel like you haven't done enough? Strange right. 

Obligation. You don't have an obligation at all to do anything. It's only what you think you have to do.

You get to do what you want - within reason and intention.

Gift Giving. You don't have to give anything. You are the gift, just as you are.

However, remember give without wanting in return. It feels so much better.

People pleasing.  It isn't any of your business to try to change other people's feelings. Stop trying to please others and start to please you. 

Now, that doesn't mean get all self centered, but rather take a look at your intentions, your purpose of your actions, and how maybe even how you expect others to react to your actions. 

With that said, if you want to feel better in your own life and want to start making you the main obligation, give the best gift to yourself. 

Find out really that you are the gift. Let's unwrap more happiness in your own life.
