talking to myself:

And when is something a "boundary" and when is it just accepting the fact that no-one and certainly no relationship is going to be perfect? Everyone has flaws -- and usually at least one huge flaw. Every relationship has problems that aren't going to go away, even though the people involved can work on them and try to come to some compromise/mutual understanding.

When is enough, well, enough? What is unacceptable and what is less than ideal, but manageble or "good enough?"

When does the good "outweigh" the bad? Is the best really the enemy of the good (or even of the acceptable?) And how can I get to a place where I can see my own boundaries a little more clearly?

I guess I'm not really expecting answers. I'm just pondering. . .
