To have that sense of one's intrinsic worth which, for better or for worse, constitutes self-respect, is potentially to have everything: the ability to discriminate, to love and to remain indifferent.
Oh, my… transformation on fire. As someone who has lived through these ages and stages, just wait until the anger passes.
At one point it protected me and helped stop the aggression of others. But then you know what they say about when you have a hammer??? Eventually, for me, anger became a door to walk through - no one hangs in the doorway. For me it’s a red flag that I’m not seeing myself.
This is so darn well written and loaded with vulnerability. I love reading about you and your musings of your life.
Hi Diane! Yes, every coping mechanism works until it doesn’t, right? Thanks so much for your always-thoughtful reflections and for reading. It means so much.
Yes, Queen! Burn, baby, burn.
