Oh, great and wise guru Stander! Just say the word and I am healed!
Seriously, though: thank you, thank you, a thousand times thank you for setting me straight with a rap on the knuckles with a ruler when, looking back over my posts, I so desperately needed one. It's the whole "emotional ambush" thing, where sincerely wanting to live by the DB principles is one thing, but putting them into practice is something else entirely. "The mind is willing" and all that.
The MC is out on her ear, as far as I'm concerned. I'll still see her for individual therapy, because she has helped me with my depression, but I'm not going to let her sabotage my DBing progress (thank you, Sandi, for your incredible 37 rules).
I've just got to practice patience. I'll admit, it's never been my strongest attribute, but I'm going to dial it up to 11.
Thanks.
