INSISTING ON THE BEST:

~

We deserve the best life and love have to offer, but we are each faced with
the challenge of learning to identify what that means in our life. We must
each come to grips with our own understanding of what we believe we
deserve, what we want, and whether we are receiving it.

What hurts? What makes us angry? What are we whining and complaining
about? Are we discounting how much a particular behavior is hurting us?
Are we making excuses for the other person, telling ourselves we're "too
demanding"?

Are we reluctant, for a variety of reasons, especially fear, to tackle the
issues in our relationships that may be hurting us? Do we know what's
hurting us and do we know that we have a right to stop the pain, if we
want to do that?

We can begin the journey from deprived to deserving. We can start it
today. We can also be patient and gentle with ourselves, as we travel in
important increments from believing we deserve second best, and taking
responsibility for that.
