Well, I'm having to step back and look at myself and my behavior pretty closely, especially in relation to recent replies to my original post "Reconcilliation?" I found myself reading and getting a bit hot under the collar...harrruuummmphing to myself that the replies made it sound as though I were some wishy-washy teenager who'd never been on my own before. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] Then I realized, I HAVE been on my own and was quite good at it (lived alone, worked, and supported myself thru college, as well as spending the first year of my separation flying solo.) However, I also have to realize that my recent 'co-dependent behavior' (for lack of a better term) takes something away from those independent experiences. During those times, for the most part, I felt level-headed, had direction, and was willing to be honest w/ myself. These days, I'm more concerned about my relationships to others than to myself or my higher power. So, in the end, whichever way this whole saga turns out, I gotta say thanks to all of you for reminding me of some pretty important priorities.
