Assertiveness

I like this cartoon! Sometimes (too often) I feel like this guy. Give in to get along... it only works for a while, then you either get angry or get depressed. I never learned to assert myself, to ask for what I want, then stand my ground. Oh, I ask... but then I back down when the going gets tough.

At my age there is so much that I still need to change. As another blogger recently said, I am a WIP... a work in progress!
