Saying "No"

I found this link on my cousin's Facebook page, and I really needed this read.  My classes have recently focused on being intentional with our words and actions, but what about taking that a step further... What about  intentional living?

One line in particular struck me:
Intentionality is not so much about saying “yes.” Instead, it’s understanding that saying yes to a commitment or relationship means you will have to say a whole lot of uncomfortable and difficult “no’s.”
This gives clarity to a lot of unanswered questions of my past, and it definitely makes me anxious to be ready to say "no" to all of my other commitments when the right time and person comes along.  For now, I'm praying for peace and readiness.
