Feeling like a boomerang. Back again! ARG!!

[needgrace]

way to go, zig... loved your post on the three rungs. i stayed on the bottom one for a long time and it pushed my W (a knee-jerker too) further and further away. the knee jerker seems to get more angry and frustrated when their forward progress is hindered in any way, even emotionally by the guilt that fear/despair from the LBS brings up for them.

if you don't feel strong - fake it till you make it, mac. you will find that leads you to access an inner strength that you never knew you had.

you had incredible strength to get through the physical recovery you described, so i am confident that it is already there within you.
