In spite of all my challenges, I wouldn't want to be the person I was twenty years ago.Liane Spicerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05035607144500219524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8410616401062748816.post-24353522883572876892007-10-09T19:16:00.000-07:002007-10-09T19:16:00.000-07:00Well it works wonderfully to me.Best wishesWell it works wonderfully to me.<BR/>Best wishesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8410616401062748816.post-54759662211691973392007-10-09T15:15:00.000-07:002007-10-09T15:15:00.000-07:00Thanks, Ello!Thanks, Ello!The Anti-Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02027321787352577548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8410616401062748816.post-38911374224958237702007-10-09T13:48:00.000-07:002007-10-09T13:48:00.000-07:00Hey AW - lovely chapter and I agree with Bernita -...Hey AW - lovely chapter and I agree with Bernita - very admirable.

I can relate on so many levels, especially about people not willing to see the changes in you. <BR/><BR/>My DH has been doing that lately ("you're not the same as when we met..") Well, duh! I'm working very hard not to be. That person was weak, full of insecurity, and would do anything to please others. I'm 41 and much stronger, though have a lot of work to do. Your writings about this topic are inspirational.<BR/><BR/>I'm reading Anne Lamott's "Plan B" which reminds me a lot of you. Have you read any of her books? <BR/><BR/>I love all your chapters. I hope you will do something with them, other than letting them stay on your harddrive!Chris Eldinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11794946908789120139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8410616401062748816.post-72904010151969767372007-10-09T06:01:00.000-07:002007-10-09T06:01:00.000-07:00One word.

At least for anyone who's willing to address and then let go of the past. <BR/><BR/>I wasted years being frightened of other people, and now I'm at a point where I just don't care enough to be scared. I talk to people. I write what I want. I admit I'm a Christian. I let hot guys who hit on me see me with my 8 year old who's nearly as tall as me. I don't always wear high heels. I cuss in front of my kids. I submit my stories and develop online relationships. I openly adore my husband.<BR/><BR/>I'm me and I'm happy and I never could have been this way at 30. You sound the same way. Confident and happy.ssashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483283426518167noreply@blogger.com
