Anybody out there who can talk a minute?

Reviewed the detachment link. Good reminder. I especially like this part:

To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another; it's to make the most of myself.
* To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about.
* To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive.
* To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being.
* To "let go" is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies.
* To "let go" is not to be protective; it's to permit another to face reality.
* To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept.
* To "let go" is not to nag, scold or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
* To "let go" is not to criticize and regulate anybody, but to try to become what I dream I can be.
* To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.
* To "let go" is to not regret the past, but to grow and live for the future.

What I especially like is that this section acknowledges the inescapable human condition of interdependence. The wonderful human condition of interdependence! Part of what "I dream to be" is highly skilled in interpersonal relationships which means interacting in a way that enhances both the other and me.

Had a good talk with my H. Things are better but I'd like to hang around here and see if I can't shift us to a better place with some input from you lovely folks.
