I went and saw the movie The blind side tonight. I really enjoyed it and I do think Sandra Bullock did great acting in the movie. I thought all the acting was great. It was a really inspiring and moving story. It made me laugh and cry. I think it really showed how dreams can come true and things can be better then you ever thought. It gives me hope.

Today was a slightly challenging day for me. But, I really stuck up for myself and my boundaries. My aunt said my cat's where fat so I looked it up online and they are in a normal weight range. I told her this and stuck up for the way I take care of my cats. Then she was talking about my weight and how I should weight 120 pounds and throw away the potatoes I got for lunch. But, I didn't I ate them. She then said "fine go ahead!"

Christina,

As a pet professional, I see a lot of fat cats on corn diets.They are an easy target when someone knows that you love them so much. I am not saying your cats are fat though.

I have found that when someone starts nitpicking, they are really trying to relieve the pain that they feel about themselves. To keep the lines of communication open with your aunt, why not ask her what her knowledge is on the subject she is addressing. Be emotionally neutral when you ask.

When you ease someone's frustration, then you ease your own. Keep your boundaries just as you are...with BraveHeart compassion.

With love, compassion and empowerment,

I like how you listen to your inner truth as it unfolds. Thank you for interacting with your aunt in a respectful manner though you differ in opinion.
