You know, Waves, I hear ya when you mention shame...

I guess we feel shame because we have bought into that stigma we're fed... that mental illness is something to be ashamed of... ya, we exhibit some pretty erratic behaviours... and whenthat darn pebble stops us in our tracks.... its a mental battle with our "selves" to do what we gotta do...

I'm getting pretty good at forgiving myself... I hope you can learn to do that too Waves... it comes with age (some of us have to get real old to say, oh, what the hell... ... it is what it is....)

Yep, Wren and Alffee... sometimes we just don't have a choice... its impossible to remove the pebble......

maybe we could shift it around.... between our toes... or into the arch of our shoe...
