The name calling thing was huge for me, I seriously could have written that journal entry a few years ago - well the last bit, 'cause I've never been to Colorado ;) For me, on this journey, the first step was to learn to be a good friend to myself. This is a very good lesson, thanks for the reminder!<br /><br />Cara :)Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150755557433507321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-87759062407908824992011-03-29T06:09:21.666-06:002011-03-29T06:09:21.666-06:00Excellent post Chris. :)Excellent post Chris. :)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903038555489140718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-57732297512220307022011-03-29T05:33:38.846-06:002011-03-29T05:33:38.846-06:00Chris, so much of what you say is where I am - cle...Chris, so much of what you say is where I am - cleaning but never accomplishing, never asking for what I need, numbing with food...it's all there. Your accomplishment has been amazing.

Y..."My life was a function of my brain."<br /><br />Yep. Seems I can always use a reminder of that, too.

It's so unnecessary. Once you start cutting through the crap, life becomes so exciting and challenging (in a good way). Yes, change is hard, but it's so worth it! And it makes us happier!<br /><br />Great post!Hanliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16476650601531649816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-16576587194181595912011-03-28T22:05:49.844-06:002011-03-28T22:05:49.844-06:00Funny you should use "threefold cord" in...Funny you should use "threefold cord" in the way that you did. It is from Ecclesiastes as you knnw, "two are better than one...and a threfold cord is not easily broken." <br /><br />It struck home for me because I founded a nonprofit corporation in the 1980s called "Threefold cord Ministries". Our by-line was "Ministering the Love of Christ to girls and women."<br /><br />I had never thought about the example you gave about rewinding the unraveling cord to make it longer, but it is a powerful visual. One that many women can identify with.<br /><br />Who knew back when I founded that ministry, with that name, the visual you just gave would fit my life...now. I need to quit rewinding my unraveling cord. Now.<br /><br />Thanks, Chris. I'll be thinking on this. I think I'll schedule myself a little session with me. I hear that I used to be pretty good helping with this kind of thing.<br /><br />DebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
