I can't have low self esteem anymore but how much am I expected to take? If I care about "them".....the lord Voldemort's of my life do I automatically qualify for self esteem issues? Do I have what it takes to fix this? Is it even a problem or am I overthinking this. I don't know but it's a good question. Is it one more way I've failed perhaps? So many options it's just confusing! Questions with no answers....knowing the unknowable and not knowing the rest. Just my luck!

Hello ElsaMars: The Skeezyks would have to admit he had to look up Lord Voldemort on Wikipedia! (Guess that says something about me, huh?) I don't know... it seems to me it would take a person with quite a bit of self-esteem to be able to care about the Lord Voldemorts in her / his life.

In her writings, the Buddhist nun Pema Chödrön often talks about learning to open the doors & invite the whole world in as being something to aspire to. I would presume, when one does so, a certain number of the folks who come in will be Lord Voldemorts.
