Totally agree. Cup half full is always a better approach for ourselves as it affects how we react with others and keeps our mind positive. Yes, nice is good.

I think it's easy to be either nice/kind to yourself (having boundaries) OR others. The trick in life is finding a way to be both. If you can do that, you're a true bad-ass, in a good way.

Having boundaries is definitely key. I think you’re right too on the obtaining balance. I sway like a pendulum. Settling centre is a skill to aspire to!

Thanks for taking time to comment, Rebecca.

When I was younger, I was all about being kind to others at the expense of myself. I'm now much, much better at boundaries, but I try hard to still be kind to others even while saying no to them sometimes. It's a work in progress.

I guess it is for most of us. Except for people who don’t try to be nice of course!

I agree, it's good to be nice. Things would be a lot better all around, if more people were nice to each other.

I wonder why ‘nice’ is regarded with such disdain? When I had a brief on line look, there were some vitriolic things said about people being nice!

Appreciate you making the effort to always comment on my posts, Juliet.
