Part of what I read in your quote and post was we dont have to force the MLC to see who we are today or show them trials and tribulations we overcome each day in raising our kids. That just by us being truthful to ourselves we come out on top.
I just also think we need to speak the truth when giving the opportunity or its like teaching creationism in a science class. Sometimes there is truth and there is fantasy. My ex's belief that I have not been overly accomandating is a complete untruth. All my divorced friends tell me not to switch weekend with him any more but I continue so he will see the kids. He sees the kids about 4 days a months. Calls maybe 2 times a week and will never call via FaceTime or Skpe. He makes zero effort. He has been to 1 school event all year. That is the truth.
OK, now I have a better understanding.
I believe we should speak and live our truth. I have no control of how others interpret that and it doesn't matter to as long as I'm acting with honesty, integrity and a level of kindness.
When I move to, I'm going to do x in and effort to get someone to change or see me in a different light (and it happens more than I like to admit), I'm in trouble, resentment follows.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
