You can't fix you, until you know, understand, and accept YOU. A part of helping yourself and others is being able to be honest and open with yourself, and being able to sympathize with others without judging. I'm no different than you. My blues might not be like your blues, but I AM THAT GIRL, ARE YOU???
Therapy and the truth hurts sometimes, but you have to face it.
Disclaimer: You might not be able to relate to all, or none, of these but in order to teach, reach, and help someone you should be able to sympathize and not judge.... And yes, some of them, not all of them, truly applies to me....Judge Not Lest Thou Be Judged... Deep Therapy is Good Therapy. ~Dr. Marilyn Wiley, PhD.~
