WELL WHAT DO YOU KNOW......... when I'm writing about my issues with the "The George" - the lawyer I have talked about on here, sometimes it feels that all I do is complain. But - I just got the following messages from a very dear friend and it made me see things from such a different perspective - I want to share this because - well it was so good for me and maybe it will let others see their issues from a different perspective. Hmmm - I just felt compelled to make this not all about me - it's my journal for God's sake and I apparently do not feel entitled to have it all about me - lololol. Or maybe I'm concerned that I will sound as though I am bragging and proud of myself - a total crime from where I come. OK - this was the message: LJ your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more. Never never never never give up as Whiston Churchill once said lol!! OK - this was her second message: you must just must continue to journal whats happening hun, its an avenue for you to read back and think about your next move and to release any anger, pain, hurt so you can look at the situation outside of those emotions!! IT IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT COMPLAINING!! YOU ARE 'SMILING ASSASSIN' with a fight within you that embodies strength, beauty, justice, you're a 'kickass beauty' who will succeed!! xxxxxxxxx Ok - this was her third message: Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength LJ keep believing in your fight and in yourself xxxxxxxx My ability to come out of my holding pattern and move forward has just been renewed dramatically with these messages -THANK YOU dear friend. When I allowed "Mommy Dearest" back into my life for a VERY brief and foolish moment - she said about this battle - "you certainly have a lot of trouble letting things go - don't you Linda". This fight has been based on the integrity of my husband, my integrity, my sense of fairness; my sense of dignity - of not allowing someone to just take whatever they want from me and to preserve my -- everything. What's to let go of? Again, my knee jerk reactions seem to come from way back when.....when I was told I was merely an hysteric making a scene about nothing - when I had truly, legitimate issues to deal wtih. Wow - just wow - what a gift this site is. Thank you again dear friend - I am back into lift-off mode:) And thank you my friends for going through this with me - what would I do without you - (I say that a lot - I know - but I really mean it) LJ
