Dear Seaisland:

Amazing- as I saw a few moments ago that you posted, I was worried, worried you felt rejected by my post and maybe (my automatic tendency… an old furnishing) you will attack me. Then, still before I read your post, I said to myself: It is okay. I expressed my thoughts and feelings honestly, and there is nothing wrong with it. I can’t and shouldn’t tailor my thoughts so to not trigger others (walking on eggshells). Then I read your post, and how refreshing- your healing path meeting with my healing path on this very post of yours! It made you think of how you react to posts and examine… And it makes me think right now: I may share a quote or say something that makes me feel good but it may trigger discomfort in someone else. In one quote one can see this … and another can see that. And it is OKAY to share it all, with respect and understanding. So thank you, Seaisland.

And as you explained above what that quote means to you, it makes sense to me. What I saw in your quote before you explained is the old criticism playing in my mind (again, an old furnishing)- “Forget the bad stuff… it is all in your head…” etc.

Hoping our paths meet again this way:
