She told me the truth,
that I did not want to hear.
I wanted to stay where I was,
wallowing in my own muckof
pain,
and bitterness,
and self loathing.
I was amgry that she told me the truth.
I did not want to leave,
I was comfortable,
in all of that hurt,
and anger,
and helplessness.
Somewhere deep inside,
reason spoke and i awoke and
ipulled my self out of that mud of my own making and
wshed,
and became clean,
and had hope again.

HI JOEY-
The 'shift' I am experiencing is happening to so many people I know - and you are one of them. Hang on with me, ok?
Love Gail

A good square kick in the pants!
It is not so funny how at home we can become in unhealthy places. Let's be grateful for those strong enough to kick us in the pants.

Sometimes at first the truth sucks, but later on I'm always thankful to have heard it.
The truth really hurts but it is better to know the truth than live in a lie.
Honestly, I need to read over and over again to understand it clearly and I need to read your previous posts to know you better. When I am free , I usually read the archives of the blog that I follow....it will take time though.
I keep forgetting to come back to the many wonderful comments (really!)
I am glad I have people in my life that will tell me the truth and get me back on track, it is all I need.
Sometimes it is easier to stay in a bad place, because our mind plays that game that to go to an unknown place is even worse.
