Hey my people, we're still here on Rooted&Real and this is Lynda. We've been

2
00:00:24.907 --> 00:00:35.065
picking up things after letting go. Today, this is the last one. We are picking

3
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:45.155
boundaries up. Okay, we let people back in with no walls. Today, we Pick Up

4
00:00:45.249 --> 00:00:53.114
Boundaries. And you see, boundaries aren't walls to keep love out. They're fences

5
00:00:53.208 --> 00:01:07.831
with gates. You decide who comes in, when, and how. You decide which calls to pick

6
00:01:07.925 --> 00:01:14.427
and which ones not to. You decide which messages to send and which ones to

7
00:01:14.522 --> 00:01:21.793
respond to, and even which ones to ignore, okay? After being hurt, okay, you either

8
00:01:21.887 --> 00:01:28.875
build walls or no boundaries at all. And you see, both of those options leave you

9
00:01:28.969 --> 00:01:39.585
lonely. So today, we build gates. Say it as it is. 'Unaambia mtu' (You tell someone), "I don't do

10
00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:45.817
last-minute plans." - "No, I won't rehash that argument." And you're not saying it

11
00:01:45.912 --> 00:01:56.150
cruelly, very calmly, but it is you saying it as it is. And don't forget, 'No' is

12
00:01:56.245 --> 00:02:02.544
actually a full sentence. You don't owe anyone an explanation for you wanting

13
00:02:02.639 --> 00:02:14.617
peace. People test gates, eh? What you should do is hold that gate once. Then

14
00:02:14.712 --> 00:02:21.214
they learn where the fence is. Picking up boundaries means you love yourself

15
00:02:21.308 --> 00:02:30.252
enough to protect your peace. You're not mean. You're not cold either. You're healed

16
00:02:30.346 --> 00:02:41.758
enough to have standards. So, pick up those boundaries. Then rest behind them.

17
00:02:41.853 --> 00:02:52.982
And that's how you rebuild after letting go. One thing at a time. I just want to

18
00:02:53.076 --> 00:03:02.546
say thank you so much again for making this journey with me. Remember, follow,

19
00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:08.818
comment, tell me what you want to hear and what you really don't want to hear.

20
00:03:08.913 --> 00:03:10.963
God bless you all...
