Yeah, I hate that tendency to second-guess myself, but I suppose it is normal and healthy. You say something that feels so true and from the heart. Then an hour later, you re-examine it and feel like a complete juvenile for being so weak.

I guess once you get those first nasty feelings out, they're out, and you can alter the way you see what's going on. The conflict you faced may not be gone but you see it in a new light and it suddenly looks so easy, so simple.

I'm still facing the same conflict and it still hurts but this time I'm standing above it, instead of letting myself be smothered by it.
