We are all so different and yet similar in the way we feel and express things and the reasons for both. I may become annoyed about something you do not and may be excited about things you find boring. What's the same are the feelings when felt.
For the #weekend-engagement this week one of the topics is about feeling energized and annoyed which I liked because all of us feel those things from time to time; hopefully more of the energizing feelings and less of the annoyed ones though.
My garden energizes me and seems always to soak into my soul so deeply pushing out any bad feelings, worries problems along with it. When I am out there working, watering or wandering about enjoying it I feel more alive and in tune with myself - a connection to nature I suppose - and the feelings stay with me long after. I can actually feel energized just thinking about my garden.
Negativity in people annoys me. I don't mind if people wish to cloak themselves in negativity but when it reaches out to others, me and those I care for, I get very annoyed. I've always been a go-getter meaning I see what needs doing and do it rather than complain, avoid or shift blame. I don't like when people complain about their situations yet fail to do anything about it and drift away from such as those.
Travel energizes me, doing and planning it, thinking about it or looking back on my travel memories. Travel has been one of the things that has defined my life and I've had so many amazing experiences travelling the world; even some of the bad experiences turned into cherished memories despite being bad at the time they happened. I don't understand those who say they don't like travelling but I suppose each to their own.
Greed and selfishness annoys me and I don't relate to those who display these tendencies - I find them repellant and disgusting. I don't expect people to be saints or give up everything for others but we live in a society so leaned towards greed and selfishness and it's one of the reasons society is regressing in my opinion.
There's many things I find energizing, inspiring and uplifting and unfortunately things I also find annoying; most people are probably the same in that. I believe the key to it is to seek more avidly and reject the other so it affects life less and less.
The important thing is not to get carried away by the negative, otherwise we would live bitter and suffering, and really in this one life we have is not worth it, better to counteract the bitter with the sweet.
I love the garden theme, I think I will try it inside a small plot of land of my work, there will do well some tomatoes and some lettuces that are in season ...these months in my country should be longer because of the vegetables!
It is necessary to take advantage of this time loaded with good vegetable energy ..☺️

Negativity has a way of taking hold of a person if it's allowed to and so I work very hard to ensure it doesn't take hold of me including staying away from negative people.

Yes, it's hard enough to face our own problems, to accompany our family and friends in theirs to also continually drag along someone else's bad vibes.
Have a great week Becca.

Nature has alwsys been a great healer so does the travel....spending time in either way is alwsys refreshing and gives a good boost to mind and body....one thingbis pretty clear as far as mean and selfishness is concerned..better to keep distant from them no matter what, never let them to spoil our privacy.
I agree that keeping distance between myself and people who are selfish is a good way to be, they are not people I want to spend time with.

I really enjoyed listening to that song while reading it, it's great!
It bothers me the negativity, the people always complaining, also the lies and the people with so much ego that they can't fit in their bodies.
I get energy from nature, painting and my cats.
Thanks Becca, I hope you had a nice Sunday, mine is starting!💗
I generally keep well away from people like that because they have no value, nothing to add to my life, and often embrace the victim mentality which I abhor.
Becca 🌷
Not only do they contribute nothing, they take away your energy. I do the same, as much as I can.
I hope you have had a good start to the week. Hugs Becca.💗
That is just the truth, I become annoyed over something that doesn't bother you
For sure.
Becca 🌷
Your points are good in probing one's character
