However, when you needed her help, she turned her back on you. It is normal to feel bitter about it but hey, kindness and purity of heart have no limits. <BR/><BR/>You have a beautiful soul and you have a soft heart by nature. Invite your cousin and let her know that despite what had happened, you still care. Kindness is a rare commodity that others don't have. You have it and I know, more blessing will come your way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07479613153214548166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154301883358538232006-07-30T16:24:00.000-07:002006-07-30T16:24:00.000-07:00shit...that's not good.i'm holding my fingers cros...shit...that's not good.<BR/>i'm holding my fingers crossed for you, and hoping that it all sorts itself out for you soon.<BR/><BR/>really, life can just be one pain in the arse after another.<BR/><BR/>:)Madeleinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03515694965912176762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154224718360292272006-07-29T18:58:00.000-07:002006-07-29T18:58:00.000-07:00Take the high road.

I wouldn't ever give her money again, but I would be civil to her and maybe at some point just casually bring up how her treatment of you felt and inquire about had you done something ever to harm her and did she feel the need to retaliate. <BR/>But keep your beautiful chin up and treat her with class and grace and let it go. You have just been given valuable info on what kind of person she really is.<BR/><BR/>I will say a prayer for you to get your nice new place all back together again!!<BR/><BR/>I love your blog.MagicalSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379384048505208220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154208320782236522006-07-29T14:25:00.000-07:002006-07-29T14:25:00.000-07:00Well, you could take the high road and invite her ...Well, you could take the high road and invite her - just to show her what a great place you have. :) Or you could ignore her for being so incredibly rude and selfish.

YOur cousin sounds as if she has trouble dealing with bumps in the road. Sometimes people can be overwhelmed to the point of panic. I would invite her. Not like you have to talk to her. The unfortunate result of her behaviour is that your trust for her has been crushed to a certain extent.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13979896448183348883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154183151437971822006-07-29T07:25:00.000-07:002006-07-29T07:25:00.000-07:00its amaazing how peoples true colors really show i...its amaazing how peoples true colors really show in a time of need ... even with family ... and its sad and bothersome to say the least ... i would smother her with kindness ... just overdue it ... cause she knew what she was doin i guarntee that ... and there is never any pleasure in stoopin to her level ... cause then shell know you let her get to you ... and you seem way to strong of a woman to do that ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154172912608570552006-07-29T04:35:00.000-07:002006-07-29T04:35:00.000-07:00DeLa...

Why?"<BR/><BR/>Change is transition... not only physically but also spiritually. Your "Self" has not caught up with Yourself. Your Solar Plexus hurts like a wound up knot. (I know... I have yet to share my similar emotional journey which uprooted my old "Self" to my Now "Self.") This is your Life showing you where you need NOT be. Remove yourself from your environment spiritually, and your surrounding elements will roll off of you like water in a rain. Diving into your surrounding "negative" or "unbalanced" elements will only drown you. Shield yourself with wings of Swan and her Down will protect you from absorbing the moisture of other's being.<BR/><BR/>When you are finally regrouped with your belongings, take time to re-familiarize your "Self" with yourself. Create a home of joyous beauty that reflects all of which you truly are.<BR/><BR/>As for the energies around you... you are NOT responsible for other people's actions and reactions. You are only responsible for your own. Allow Swan energy to rise you above this play where you can spread your wings and soar, letting it all go...<BR/><BR/>"would you invite her to the party? "<BR/><BR/>Yes... maybe she will find an excuse to not come. You will be the Hero for inviting her by leaving no scars or opening doors welcoming battle. If she attends... Fly Like the Beautiful Swan and be responsible for your "Self" only. <BR/><BR/>You Go Girl!!!<BR/><BR/>Libra Moon<BR/><BR/>PS: Do your "Self" a favour… on your first night "Home," chill… and sit in darkness with candle(s) lit and "Listen" to your new world around you. "Listen" to every noise outside of your windows, every sound above and below you. "Listen" to the voices within your walls. "Listen" to the settling of your building… the hum of your fridge. Familiarize your "Self" with the new language of the world around you. "Listen…" until the loudest sound you hear is your own breath. Life is the most important and comforting sound of all…Libra Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09799023442699812303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154121303345504012006-07-28T14:15:00.000-07:002006-07-28T14:15:00.000-07:00Ahem ...We're praying for you at the Church.Hallel...Ahem ...<BR/><BR/>We're praying for you at the Church.<BR/><BR/>Hallelujah (69x)<BR/><BR/>AMENThe Good Revhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01567554812435371697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154117576104762612006-07-28T13:12:00.000-07:002006-07-28T13:12:00.000-07:00Girlnextdoor thanks for the visit, no my landlady ...Girlnextdoor thanks for the visit, no my landlady won't be paid for the 3 days that i've been out of the apartment...i've known her for five years prior to moving to the place so she's not a stranger to me that's why I didn't tell her off for moving all my stuff to the kitchen and bathroom. I just felt that she should have warned me so I can make better sleeping arrangements. I had no idea my cousin would have reacted the way she did, I don't think one more night at her place would of had a tremendous affect.

Although I am still hurt by what she did, and so tempted to not invite her to my housewarming, and my brother lives with her so whether she's invited or not she will find out about it.<BR/> <BR/>S* at first I was pissed that my landlady had the workers move my stuff around, but I know she meant well and I understand the urgency behind her wanting to put the new tiles asap. She knows i've been frustrated with the living situation and with my crave for privacy and wanting the apartment ready so I can unpack and decorate.Lyrically speakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695704757793935348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28725085.post-1154113710293482932006-07-28T12:08:00.000-07:002006-07-28T12:08:00.000-07:00I'd be sooo pissed at your landlady.
