[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 736631, member: 18958"] Okay feeling, I will be direct. First. We need no longer be perky, cute or "on." We are no longer ingénues. We are sages. We have lived. We have loved. We can proudly wear our scars and assert our truth. This is what you have never yet allowed yourself to do. It is time. Over fifty years ago you had to suppress the truth of your life and repress your true self. No longer. No man worth having wants you with a pretty bow on, mute. Debutantes are out. The real you is what is required. Every single thing you have gone through, suffered makes you more, not less, desirable to the person who will really love you. But first that person has to be you. I have mentioned spiritual direction before. I really believe in it. It has been two years for me and I feel transformed. I went to AA last week. I do not drink (almost.) But I want to be around people who tell the truth about themselves and their lives and seek to live it. I am really contemplating doing 90 meetings in 90 days to get a jumpstart. I can think of concrete things you can do to be around people who will love you, just exactly as you are, and for who you are. What are YOU up for? I hope you feel better soon. How were your seminars? [/QUOTE]
