I'm with you, bigybiz.

Outside comments and suggestions are incredibly valuable. Sometimes we can't see what's in front of our faces when we're right in the middle of our own situations.

Our past experiences, including our recent pains, provide a lens through which we see everything new, and sometimes that lens causes distortion that we don't even recognize anymore. I struggle with this.
