I...Thank you Nancy for your wisdom and compassion. In my family of origin my family only modeled response #4 - stay miserable and make it worse! It has taken me years (actually decades) to learn acceptance which often leads to a different way of seeing the situation causing the suffering. This new point of view may also lead to a different solution - but sometimes not. When we can give ourselves compassion during difficult times at least we are not making it worse! <br />Amy Grabowski, Director The Awakening Centernoreply@blogger.com
