[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 753053, member: 23706"] Two great posts in a row. I too am on a learning curve, not there yet. I have pretty much mastered not allowing others to tell me what I shouldn't feel or say. But I still sometimes realize that my own mind is abusing me, blaming me, torturing me, telling me I said or did the wrong things. It is so much better now, but I am a work in progress. Aren't we all? I won't let others invalidate what I say because it is how I feel and nobody has the right to shut me down (nor do I have that right regarding others) but my own mind invalidates me. And it can be relentless. Are you SURE this isn't your fault? Are you SURE this is right by Kay? Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? But, as I said, I do it far less often now, both with others and to myself. It's a start. Thank you, ladies, for these wonderful words of wisdom that I can take with me today. You have no idea how helpful you both have been. The holidays are hard for me too. My angel son was born on Dec. 23rd. And there is always a hole in my heart on Christmas. There always will be. Blessings to all. [/QUOTE]
