Boundaries

For the last several days there have been people attempting to draw me into their own drama by suggesting that I perform various actions like trying to influence others on their behalf.  When I say “no”, they get aggravated.   For me, part of making a loving connection with others is also having firm boundaries.  If I enter into someone else’s drama it adds to my own stress, and prevents them from taking full responsibility.  I realize that I am depriving them of a chance to grow.
