Sacred boundary 5/18/2017

My daughter takes the school bus to school. There are around 14 kids to gather at the same bus stop as her. I get to know other kids that way.

Yesterday, several minutes after we came back home, two of the boys (they are brothers) came by at our entrance door. They said they could not go in their house, then they naturally came into my house.

I instantly felt uneasy. I don’t like to have an unexpected visitor to my house. The younger boy stayed with my daughter in the living room, but I could not see the older boy there.

After I searched him, I found him staying alone in my daughter’s room, laying down on my daughter’s bed, and to my surprise, he was using my iPad. I really felt uneasy about everything he did.

For the instant moment, I didn’t know what to do. Then the next moment I called my husband and asked him to talk to the older brother. The older brother told my husband the reason why they came to my house. It was the younger brother’s idea. He said I told him they could come to my house anytime.

I know myself. I would not say such things to anybody.

I needed to take my courage out. I talked to the brothers that I never said that and I cannot have any unexpected visitors to my house. I feel uncomfortable when the unexpected visitor lays down on my daughter’s bed, staying alone with using my personal iPad. They just said okay.  

This experience was uncomfortable for me, but it gave me clarifications on what I want and how I can set my sacred boundary. I learned the importance to feel and follow my feeling. Honoring my feeling is the key to stay being within my inner peace.    

Any feedback? (^^♪
