But again my point was that I feel like I would be a prime candidate for one of these MLC journeys based on my childhood, particularly as it involves my father. But I haven't. So what's the other piece to the puzzle?
Bill, I do not know. Maybe you found ways around enduring low self-esteem (something which I know my husband has, but shouldn't if you could see all he's done with his life). I guess it has to do with the way we handle what we've been through in our younger years. I can look at my own childhood and see enough to jot myself down for a MLC, but I have never been through what my husband has been going through. So, it still remains a mystery to me.
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
