"Only weak people need others to draw out the best in themselves..."

Jack, this is something that you said on another thread just now. It hit me because it goes along with your previous comment to me about validating myself. Am I seen as weak by you then?

Don't ask questions you don't want the answers to.
Don't ask question hoping for the answers you want to hear.

I think you could do better.

We all have weak moments dar.
So you haven't cornered the market on that by any means.
Consider that you started the week (or maybe it was last week) very strong. So goes it on the roller coaster but there is a lot you can do to improve your overall outlook. It starts with genuinely taking care of, and loving, yourself.

Have a good weekend.

Dar,

"Drew, don't think that'll work. I can't even pretend he's far away unable to be reached."

And that's why you're stuck. You can never move forward and change things in a positive way, until you truly embrace the fact that things have changed.

You are all just helping me increase my list of self-improvements needed. And I truly thank you for that.

Dar,

No one said this was easy. In fact, it's likely the hardest thing you'll ever do.

But it's life.

Embrace it.

Grow.

You might surprise yourself. And others ........
