Excellent article – thanks for passing it on.
Thanks for sharing this, Robin.
This really resonates with me. I decided quite some time ago that I was just going to go right ahead and stick with the version of reality I like best. A therapist friend of mine says that a dollop of denial is functional and sometimes quite necessary to get through life. Once she told me that, I was like, “Okay, I’m in.”
Adrienne, I’m with your therapist and friend and with you on the glories of a dollop of denial. It’s what’s gotten me through so far.
Mother Reader and Elizabeth, hope you found it valuable!
Jennie is a great speaker. She was the keynote speaker(along with Bob Mayer) a few years back at my little local conference. I think I heard some part of that.
Great writer too. Enjoyed a few of her books.
Just now getting around to reading the article, Robin, but I so appreciate it. I think it’s much easier to ditch the dream than it is to dare to persevere. I really hope I can be daring…soon. It’s tough to prioritize the plates when so many are spinning in different directions, but I still have my dream. It isn’t ditched. Thanks again.
