[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 693796, member: 18958"] SWOT. What a beautiful post. What a glorious day and weekend. I think you need to think about something, that you may be holding on to the sense you "are lacking" when really it is time to let it go. I know that I hang on to feelings about myself that do not serve me. A deep shame. A sense of being vulnerable to be hurt by others. Fear that I will be scapegoated or betrayed. The sense that other people (especially at work) think I am foolish or less than. All of these feelings are in me. Other people may think this or that about me, but I only own their judgements if I buy in. I do not think in the heart of us SWOT we really believe we are either inferior or lacking. Because if we did, we would not each of us have fought so hard for what we have, or kept pushing and pushing until our lives were better. I believe we must hold onto these old, old feelings kind of like old shoes--we do not need them anymore. They no longer fit. In fact they are too small. They hurt. Maybe we can start a thread about releasing some of this pain. It is time. I bet others feel this way, too. Maybe there are rituals that we can find that might help us. I think you proved to yourself once and for all that you are not that person you once believed or were told you were. You have created your life, a beautiful life, and have recreated yourself. It is time to look in the mirror and see your real reflection. It is the gracious and loving and confident woman at that party. Meet yourself. This is SWOT. [/QUOTE]
