(((((((((Soup)))))))---I am in league with all here ()--just saw this. I like Sannah's suggestion...check out the little girl in you? She used to ask for things only for herself. Children are like that, yeah they are! LOL. Took me many years to give her any credence at all..now I see that she is wiser than this ancient "Adult"Grandma who is me--oo-she's more fun; she's so silly! Other people enjoy that part of me also.

You? the adjective "stupid" with you? Nah, they don't mix. Nope, Nope, Nope!

Soup; you actually see me. So few do. What an amazing ability you have to identify the need in others! You "broke my fall" with your wonderful songs you posted in Pods. You saved me! I was in a bad way. Even further along, we all get mulled down by old perspectives of ourselves. And if there is someone with your great depth of sensitivity there to give a hand up.....it is wondrous.

Apply that soothing, golden love to you? You more than deserve it!

You are sooo many; it is complicated, overwhelming to figure how to change your way of looking and seeing your own needs as paramount to the needs of others.

I have faith that you will overcome and master this task. After all, how can you keep "Giving" if you don't replenish yourself? You are so much more than you relay in this thread.....

You may "feel stupid"--but how you feel does not define who you are.

As I said before, you are many, you are complex; this just makes things harder. Thinking too much is oftimes an enemy to us. Do you practice Mindfulness? Helps me alot!

I am thinking of you. I know you will get through this. You are so very "Golden"!
