ORIGINAL: auroraborealis I am so glad you are able to slow down, stop, and re-evaluate things in your life too. I hope they all go wonderfuly. You deserve to be truely happy honey. I'm glad that you have found people who are healthy for you and your life. It's very good to have a support system that's safe and will put your needs and emotional well-being at the forefront. After digging around a bit in my personal baggage, I found out that I was compromising my beliefs and things that were important to me in order to please other people. I was being fake, not in an obvious, showy way - but I was going along with the group, as it were, in order to avoid confrontation. That's not me. I'm not looking for an argument or a fight, but a healthy debate over ideas isn't something I shy away from. And keeping my inner feelings from people who mean something to me isn't me either. But I was doing all of it. And when that realization hit me, it was hard. I had become someone I didn't recognize anymore. The past 3 weeks has been a time for me to check in on myself and see what and who I am. It's been a good thing, though, a bit stressful. However, I'd rather keep on this path than go backwards. *hugs my dear Gwyn*
