The only reason I am able to let go when I do is that it is true stuff and others may be going through something similar. Like Dunbar said, We Wear the Mask.

I am googling Pema Chodron now.

It is the sharing of our stories that creates such a powerful community.

I love Pema Chodron's teaching on leaning into the hard stuff and observing it rather than running from it (When Things Fall Apart). Western culture is squeamish about the hard stuff in life. I love this challenge for all the wonderful posts I get to read. Michelle Lihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14010297632067368599noreply@blogger.com
