2. I like that I am determined, if I ever have a child, to give him/her a better life, better mental health and greater understanding and tolerance than my parents gave me. Man doesn't have to 'hand down misery to man', despite what Larkin says, and if I only keep one promise I've ever made to myself, it will be this one.

46. I admire the strength I had as a child continually standing up for myself and my rights. As a child standing up to powerful, abusive adults was very courageous.
47. I have always had huge fear and resistance to using my imagination in therapy. Believing in imaginary figures just didn't feel safe. After ten years I have found the courage to create soothing imaginary figures, and rely on myself when triggered.
48. I am not feeling stuck in therapy any more.
