*****Reminding myself that if I can keep the space light, peaceful and joyful, we'll all feel better. I'm the most skilled person in my family who can do this. I feel it is my responsibility*****

This is beautiful and I'll try and keep it in mind. Seeing it as something I can do rather than as me always biting my tongue.

As you can see I am still learning to reframe these things as a choice...but it helps every time I do.

Ah...it's that reframing it as a choice thing...I can do that here too and it will help. Thank you!

You're putting a step between yourself and the direct choicemaking.

If every time you think or speak or act you make a choice, then you never will need to reframe anything. Take the frames off. :-) Just make choices.
