There comes a time when you feel so awful and everything just seems to be going wrong that you just DECIDE you won’t get affected by it all anymore.
You decide that you want to finally feel good and that even if it’s chaotic all around, there will be an end to all of it.
You decide to hold on to your hope, and to stay positive.
You decide to pray, and you decide to believe that someone hears your prayers.
When you decide such things, it is then that you discover the BLESSINGS and the POWER that has been with you all along!
How about you? When was the last time you felt like enough is enough?! When was the last time you decided to feel what you want to feel instead of feeling like a victim of circumstances or of other people’s whims?
When you finally exercise your powers, you decide that you do not have to play the victim anymore. It is not your boss who will decide for you, not the man who broke your heart, not the economy that stole away your job. You have the freedom and the capability. You decide!







Hi Jocelyn,
I felt that way last week when I was mad at my husband for 3 days. I knew I was projecting my own stuff and no matter what I did prayer, meditation, journaling etc. helped get rid of my anger.
Finally I said “enough is enough!” I surrendered, I quit blaming, I quit the victim role, picked myself up, brushed myself off gave myself a hug and let all the craziness go.
I sure wish it wouldn’t of taken so long (3 days out of my life) but hey it’s a process.
and I won’t beat myself up because “enough is enough.”
I love this post!
Hi Jocelyn,
Enough is enough…I like that! I remember this day, when I had been working on replacing our shower faucet. And it seemed to work for a while, and then the hot water stopped. So, I went to fix it, and it just kept getting worse and worse the more I tried. It was so frustrating. Finally, I surrendered (and admitted I am not cut out to be a plumber!). I said “enough is enough”, and we paid to have someone come in and fix it. It was expensive, but it was done right - and we’ve had no problems since.
Great message to remember!
@Lance - Yes, Lance, sometimes we do try too hard, and it takes a bit of frustration to slap us awake and snap us out of the rut we are in. We can’t be jack of all trades all the time, and we can’t all be plumbers!
But thank God you’re you and many people are blessed because of that.
@Tess the Bold Life - I’m happy to hear you’ve finally settled the matter with your other half
Three days is really a lot of struggle, especially when it comes to people who matter most to us, but times like that definitely help our relationships grow. It reminds us that whatever made us angry isn’t really as big as the kind of love we have for that special person we have in our life!
Hi Jocelyn - what you’ve said is so right and I need to do that right now and this week is the time to do it - it will be difficult to just accept others as they are, but I must and not rise in the wrong way. I know where I am and where I’m going and that should be enough for me to accept others.
The important bit is to not feel affected by things going on around you, or peoples’ comments or thoughts .. hold true to yourself.
This week I must do this - thanks for the timely reminder .. enough is enough - time for me to decide ..

Hi Jocelyn, I am going through a very difficult time in my life right now. I am so inspired by your website. It’s helping me understand the pain, the loneliness, confusion, rejection, anger that are surrounding me. You are right. I also get that feeling, that enough is enough. Enough crying for me. Enough feeling dejected. I can’t wait to wake up in the morning and finally find myself moving on, letting go.
@Raw Honey - Thank you also for your words that encourage me to keep on writing. Sometimes, enough is really enough, and no matter how dark it is where we are, we know that there is a better life waiting for us, we hold on to that hope!
