[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 654032, member: 18958"] Thank you for your almost instant and totally right on response. I will follow your advise, but this is my question: where do you get the will to have a good life, if your children cannot or will not live well? What do you do with the grief, the guilt, the regret...the horrible sorrow? I feel I failed as a daughter...a sister...now, as a mother....as I am writing this I see that this is pretty deep...as if at the most basic level I feel that my worth depends upon the well-being of others. I have to learn to make my worth and well being independent of everything and everybody outside of myself. And to have the love I give to be pure and unconditional. Of course I knew that before...but this chat has been an opportunity to see it at work now in a deeper way. Whew. Feeling better. Thank you SomewhereOutthere. Very much. [/QUOTE]
