Here's another ((((((((((((((((( hug )))))))))))))))))))) your way from a woman who also felt she was carrying a big bag of rocks around -- can't we just SOLVE this once and for all and go back to being loving?
Geez. I guess not.
Lately I've been reading a wonderful book by Aaron Beck, a cognitive therapist whose ideas are in line with Michele's -- "Love Is Not Enough."
Dr. Beck lays out what happens when we're in love, and all aglow -- and how that changes -- and how negative perceptions become "the norm" -- and what to do about it.
I've been re-reading DR and DB, too.
Sigh.
It's all so unfair, from one perspective. So go ahead and vent.
But from another point of view we see our actions effecting change, and though it's slow, love peeks its head out again, and our WAS show their faces, seeking love, too.
I must remember: the o-chick in my H's life is an insect.
Merely annoying.
I shrink her down with bug spray and light candles for what matters to my heart.
