Today I will say no without guilt.
Today I will say no whenever it is in my best interests to do so. Just as important, I will say no without feeling guilty or fearful.
My attempts to separate from my parents were met with therats of abandoment. As a result, I learned to avoid having my own opinion for fear of rejection.
Deep within me now, I feel a strong desire to become my own person, to stand free of all unhealthy attachements and discover who I am. When I disregard my limitations and permit others to vioate my boundaries, I harm myself.
TOday I will love myself enought to say no when I find it necessary. I will reassure the child within me that those who truely love me will not abandon me when I must tell them no. No matter what they response, today I will treat myself well by saying no without guilt and fear.
