I knew my choice of the word 'guilt' might spark some kind-hearted defense but I chose it anyway. Guilt is the first response the women of our family feel to everything. I'm guessing it has been passed down for centuries. My philosophical musings on guilt: It's funny how closely guilt and pride can be linked; you can really only feel guilt over every situation if you somehow deem yourself capable or responsible for the outcome of said situation. Control freak much?
Anyhoo, it is my instintual response and I have learned to allow myself that. I try it on, 'taste' it, process my reaction, take action if the guilt was legitimate and move on if it wasn't. It's part of the process of letting go, so I won't deny it, nor will I allow it power over me. Thank you though, for the kind words.
JoAnne and Diane, what you went through in caring for your family members was very inspirational for me. I deeply admire you both.
Mysteryhorse, I love the pics. They give me such a smile. I'm guessing you will soon be the POINO (proud owner in name only) of a Sunshine Pony.
Jim, so sorry about the course changes. I too would be very disappointed, thought I do hope to visit Busan some day
Wondering about how Ebozo and Dadkat are doing...
