[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 654611, member: 18958"] Until this moment I did not realize that for nearly a lifetime I have been carrying responsibility for my sister's poor choices. I did so by judging her and then blaming myself for judging her. I think I did this because this was a way to keep her, to not have to acknowledge to myself fully her true nature. As long as I judged her (which was wrong)...I kept some of the blame for myself...I protected her. (The affective charge from the judgment) kept a relationship and my hope alive.... if one day I stopped judging her, we could be together. How sad. Almost, I would rather keep the illusion that...someday...we'll be together (Dianna Ross.) [/QUOTE]
