I could just wipe the hard drive and start over. He had to deal with a massive ball of mixed up connections and faulty wiring. He couldn't reach inside my head and change it. All he could do was persuade me that the damage wasn't permanent, my past did not define me, and I could chose a different future. I like Jasmine's idea that this information will help me to be a little kinder to myself as I rewire.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07083142637240943607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079681358332005341.post-58027859218309206392011-01-23T14:36:19.210-05:002011-01-23T14:36:19.210-05:00I appreciate you helping me learn more about this ...I appreciate you helping me learn more about this topic. This information makes it easier for me to be more patient and nicer to myself while I work through years of faulty wiring:) <br /><br />After reading this article, boy, am I glad I loved my own son enough to meet his daily need for hugs and kisses and encouragement. He *must* have healthier brain connections than I do. Case in point, he's a lot calmer than I've ever been! In fact, when I'm around him I am ultra aware of how anxious I am compared to him. He's so patient and kind...EMPATHETIC:)...he's actually gently teaching me, his old mom, how to relax and enjoy today.Jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07166710072227657016noreply@blogger.com
