Thought For The Day

"It takes a village to raise a child"

I think of that concept in the context of all of us here. Many times we are vulnerable, like a child. That it takes a "village", meaning the online community here, hopefully our own loved ones and friends, to get through. To heal. To be able to just face another day sometimes.

Nicollete, I was guilty of this in my relationship. I kept comparing the relationship my vet and I had to what other people "seemed" to have. Then one day, I realized that our relationship would never ever turn back into the storybook one we once had because PTSD never goes away. When I stopped comparing and became grateful for small improvements, etc. it got a whole lot better. Kat

My thought for the evening:

Layer by Layer of confusion and delusion peeled and slowly replaced. The question is what am I replacing it with and what is it's value?

......Now I just got to say, that in typing the above I stopped for a moment after typing ...what am I replacing it with ...and I accidently typed these two letters, (capital): BS :roflmao: .. :oops: .. :roflmao:

:O_o:..:) Now on a serious note: I think it's necessary for me to examine what replaces what when layers of confusion and delusion is removed.
