Is my cup too full?

Posted in emotional well being, mental health, self awareness, self esteem, women, tagged , , , on May 19, 2008 | 2 Comments »

It comes from this blog: Shift your Spirits
It is timely as I [...]

‘You have a problem with confrontation’ ( a psych nurse)
‘You have not confronted the most important person yet - yourself’ (My counsellor)
Yikes….my body is wracked with fear and anguish. My experience of confrontation is negative….scary…frightening.

Key quotes:

Ummm not as clever as some, not as sexy as others, different tatses [...]
