Patience... normally I'm pretty good at that. Not when it comes to myself, though, and my own healing. You're right. I need to slow down. Be gentle with myself. And not try to force healing to happen so fast.

You spend a lot of time and energy into helping others, to this day. I'm glad that, somewhere along the way, you learned to take care of You, too. That's so hard for mothering types like us.
