Do I really want the hardest thing that I have gone through, to define me as a person ??
I have asked myself this question, often. No, I don't, but realistically I wonder how could it not???
I'm not the same person I was 1 second before BD. Honest assessment, I'm a more compassionate, less judgmental and kinder person in a lot of ways. I'm stronger, more resilient and less likely to make excuses for bad behavior. My boundaries may come down harder than necessary at times, which frankly, doesn't bother me nearly as much as it probably should.
So, I guess the way to answer that question is to pose another: what do you mean by define?
