Some thoughts about recovery. * Take what you like and leave the rest.
~Caretaking: the act of taking responsibility for other people whileneglecting responsibility for ourselves. When we instinctively feelresponsible for the feelings, thoughts, choices, problems, comfort,and destiny of others, we are caretakers. We may believe, at anunconscious level, that others are responsible for our happiness,just as we’re responsible for theirs.It’s a worthy goal to be a considerate, loving nurturing person. Butcaretaking is neglecting ourselves to the point of feeling victimized.Caretaking involves caring for others in ways that hamper them inlearning to take responsibility for themselves.Caretaking doesn’t work. It hurts other people; it hurts us. Peopleget angry. They feel hurt, used, and victimized. So do we.The kindest and most generous behavior we can choose is takingresponsibility for ourselves – for what we think, feel, want, andneed. The most beneficial act we can perform is to be true toourselves, and let others take responsibility for themselves.Web Stores:eCrater - http://wrhmcp.ecrater.com/Webidz - http://www.webidz.com/stores/WRHPolice ARDC – http://www.wrhmcp.comAtomic Mall - http://www.atomicmall.com/wrhmcp
