GeroldParticipantThe best thing I could say is, you dont know how other people feel. You may think that they dont like what you said, or what you have done. But meanwhile they are probably not thinking that at all. Aside from that, no body is perfect. Even if you did something strange, everyone does. If they voice that you offended them, simply apologize. Don’t think for other people, let them think for themselves.
Another key thing to remember is, people can sense the vibes you are giving off. If you are thinking there is something wrong with what you have done, they may sense that. What I am trying to say is, your thoughts can actually come true. Be the person you want to be. If you want to be happy and care free, just act that way. 🙂

GeroldParticipantWow you really have a great way to explain things. I really appreciate all the help you have given me 🙂 I am new to Tiny Buddha. I will visit here more often, and also see if I can help someone the way you helped me. 🙂
GeroldParticipantYeah I have been thinking about that Anita. Its a great idea. I think it will take a while for me to move on, but that is a great start. When I look at all the cottages listed for rent, I still find myself comparing them to the one we used to own. Is that a bad thing?
GeroldParticipantHmm interesting, I think I can see what you mean. Are you saying to rent another cottage thats affordable?
GeroldParticipantI would say both.
GeroldParticipantI think I am having a problem accepting that it is gone because I really enjoyed it and miss it. I think thats the issue.
GeroldParticipantThe cottage, and all the new memories I could have made if we still owned it. I also really wish our Daughter (5 years old) could have had that and experienced it just like I did.
GeroldParticipantAnita, thank you for replying. Hmm, for me, I see/feel something sacred that my family worked on/built, A legacy that my Grandfather left, with lots of memories we created that I now miss. Something that I think will be impossible to regain, because of its rarity, beauty, and cost. I love my grandparents, but since they died when I was very young, I don’t have much to remember them by. Just some family videos, A wood garden shed in our current backyard that my grandfather built, and the cottage we no longer have. You see, in my heart and mind, I still feel like the cottage is mine. But I know that is not the case. When I was a child I took it for granted, I didn’t realize how lucky and special it really was to me.
