I'm going on vacation with my family the first week of July. We are taking our boat out to Table Rock and staying in a big lakeside cabin. But my parents decided to invite another family to go boating with us. I don't like them. I mean, that sounds really rude and I sound selfish when I say this but people are going to be coming in and out of our cabin and spending the night the whole time. I won't get to have a room all to myself until like the last day. Is there any suggestions to how I can change my attitude about this vacation? I hate how selfish I sound but I have been super busy lately and I just want to crash and spend some time with my family. I know we are blessed enough to be able to invite other people but I can't shake the feeling of this ruining my vacation. How can I change the way I look at this? Please help! I want to be able to accept this and just give trust to God that its all gonna be okay.

I understand that but I would try to do things that you enjoy even if it means spending time with a person you don't like. You won't get to go on vacation a lot more so you should enjoy the trip. Don't let that one disadvantage make you mad. Getting yourself mad like that is only going to take the trip away from yourself. With that attitude you aren't allowing yourself to have fun.

You need to look outside yourself and consider other people. You're very fortunate to have a boat and a cabin that can be enjoyed, and better yet, shared with others. See this as a way to reach out and become better friends. Try and learn something new or interesting every day of your trip about each person that's not a family member. You may surprise yourself and find yourself enjoying your new found friends.

TRY TO BE MORE OPEN-MINDED AND DON'T LET
EVIL or ANY KIND OF 'BAD' THOUGHTS INTO YOUR BRAIN, IF THAT HAPPENS THINK ANYTHING THAT YOU LIKE, THINK ABOUT GOD...
GOD LOVES YOU..
I had a experience like you did, but later I had discovered that
it wasn't that 'BAD' after all, all you had to do was to
make sure that you are not showing your hatred towards them, otherwise they will think you're treating them "bad", you know what i mean...~^_^
So next time you are 'FEELING KIND OF DOWN ABOUT VACATION' ASK YOURSELF A THREE SIMPLE STEPS:->
1. Am I too angry?
2. am i too shy?
3. am i not being so kind or friendly?
then everything will be fine
and if you have any problems about anything,
Just PRAY, That's what I would do,
because when you PRAY, God 'Listens' to You,
and that God Loves you and will look out for you,
and that God cares for you,
so whenever you are frustrated ask God for help,
and email me to this email:
ohseho90@yahoo.co.kr
and i WILL PRAY with you together. ok
Thank you for reading this message,
and Hope you have a WONDERFUL HOLIDAY...~ (^___^*)~
God Bless and Loves you~^_^~*

I think you'll come around, once you get there and start seeing all the fun everyone else is having.
