We teach what we need to learn. And we teach it until we get it.
~ Irene Tomkinson
My fear of loneliness is like a disease.
My mothering needed a tad more Mother Theresa and a lot less Lizzy Borden.
I had been running as fast as I could for all of my adult life. A person can’t listen effectively while running. A running mother is not able to pick up clues. She is not able to let go of her own agenda long enough to stop and listen.
An angry woman is a bitch. An angry man is strong, whereas, a sad man or a fearful man is a wimp. A sad or fearful woman is frail.
Alcoholism or addiction is a disease because it fits the definition of disease. It is progressive and chronic, and left untreated, it will kill.
