We argued again today I ended up crying. Repeatedly. You think I'm selfish... I think you're selfish... who isn't selfish in the bottom of the soul? Elders counsel say things will get better. Eventually. I think I'm doing all I can... you think you're doing all you can... when is "all we can" enough? I worked out my anger sweated out the pain. I feel good. Rational. Maybe one day we'll go to bed unstressed. But not tonight |

The feeling of being unsettled comes through most vividly here. |

Deep down we all have to look out for ourselves, who else is really going to... but Nareena my friend, I have a feeling that you're not selfish... thats not the feeling I've gotten from your comments to others here... you keep working it out, nothing worth having is ever going to come easy. Enjoyed this! |

I hope it all works out for you and the stress level drops on both accounts. Sometimes, however, when you've done all you think you can do . . . I'm rooting for you. ~ After twelve years of therapy my psychiatrist said something that brought tears to my eyes. He said, "No hablo ingles." ~ |
