A Diagnosis Is Burden Enough

Most Of Us In The Baby-boom Generation Were Raised By Full-time Mothers. Even As Recently As 14 Years Ago, 6 Out Of 10 Mothers With Babies Were Staying At Home. Today That Is Totally Reversed. Does That Mean We Love Our Children Less Than Our Mothers Loved Us? No, But It Certainly Causes A Lot Of Guilt Trips.

Kids Learn More From Example Than From Anything You Say; I'm Convinced They Learn Very Early Not To Hear Anything You Say, But To Watch What You Do.

I Envy People With Dreams And Passions, But I Don't Think That Way. I Still Don't Have A 'bliss' To Follow. For People Like Me - I Suspect That's Most People - Holding Out For A 'dream' Or A 'passion' Is Paralyzing. I Just Like Having Work I Enjoy That Feels Meaningful. That's Hard Enough... But It's Enough.

The Courage To Try Something New Makes Me Proud.

I Spent An Awful Lot Of My Life Underestimating Myself And, As A Result, Not Exceeding My Own Expectations.
