🍀 offering my support 🍀
posted: Fri, Jun 7, 2019 09:05:08 AM
no matter what. Of course, there have been times when I have crossed the boundary between support and enabling. The problem for me anyhow, is for me, it has been a learning process to see where that line exists, and when I have crossed over it. When I discover I am on the wrong side of that line, my reaction is very extreme. The damage I do in that mode, to myself and to the person I have crossed over with, is without a holdover from the days of getting even when someone does me wrong. It really is not them that has done me wrong, it is me who has done me wrong.
So I do not have much more to say, except if you need some support, just reach out, I will do my best to give all that I can. I am better at detecting the boundary these days, so I can say “NO” much sooner and before I end up burning down the house.

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge
Book 1
1) The Tao in its regular course does nothing (for the sake of doing
it), and so there is nothing which it does not do.
