I've been told never to compare my insides to someone else's outsides. Plus, if she's that angry, how could she be so happy?
Believe me, I get it. My H has the world on a string, everything is going his way but inside, he's a tormented insecure mess, I only see it because we get so much time together. That doesn't mean that he wont decide he's happy and roll with it. I guess that is what is hard for us to accept, that we can think they are delusional, nuts, miserable, whatever and it wont stop them. It can just help us to focus on ourselves and hopefully stop comparing.
I know! But we still do! I've been comparing my 'inside' with her 'outside'...and I've been comparing my weakness iwth her strength! It's a losing proposition. I don't know if she's torn on the inside or not...seems pretty strong and together to me. They convince themselves they are right...no matter what! We need to STOP comparing...that's for sure! It's hard to do...but we've got to focus on ourselves! Once you figure out how to do that, let me know!
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
