"You are never alone unless you wish to be" is the one that works for me -- your mileage may vary.<br /><br />I'm so in awe of the work you are doing, and the clarity with which you are doing it. People-pleasing has been taught to young children for generations in many families, sometimes to all and other times to one selected child. I've never seen it lead someone to a happy adulthood, no matter how effectively they do it -- because 'happy oneself' does not actually come from pleasing others.<br /><br />I'm so glad you are giving yourself space, and love, and listening. And that you are reaching out when you need company.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
