YES!
I have this insane idea that my (now ex) wife and daughter MUST be happy and cannot get upset unless its something I think is valid....how horrible of me!
And isn't it much easier to fix them anyway? LOL I know its not funny, but you know what i am getting at.
I have found that what I detest most in others is what I detest most about ME!
Problems?!? ME?!
Oh I have ignored my own issues for so long now....but no more!
I have found that my base line need is emotional...its an addiction...I search for acceptance and somehow think by fixing others THIS will surely gain me acceptance!
I am now doing the 12/12 because of input and inspiration of my dearest cousin.
