I hear and read so many posts about ‘putting up walls’. It’s sad really. I realize that I have been doing a little of this, but walls are not the answer. Early on, I resolved to heal myself by giving, loving and being open. The more I see just how damaging walls are, the more I try to remember not to build them. I will give of myself, I will love, and that will be my guide. I will remember, when I try to guard myself, that loving my wife (and others) feels good and right, no matter the state at the moment…I don’t want to have to tear down the walls my wife has built to protect herself from the love she feels, and I certainly don’t want to have to tear down my own walls later on in life so that I can live again.
