The Line

[changing]

Hi Poppy-

My Bagworm NH hates my having any boundaries, and says that my taking care of myself and not catering to his irrational and greedy lust for attention and the  building up of his pathological ego and need for control of my actions and expressions, are mean and vicious and unfair. (Oh, poor Bagworm)I think if someone cares for you and wishes you well, they applaud your doing what supports your health and well-being, and don't require you to act in a certain way in order to validate their existence. Those who don't, protest and slink away. I am glad the Bagworm is gone. He needs to feed elsewhere, and get professional help.
We deserve real people in our lives, not hollow spiritual parasites! Bagworms, begone!!!

Hugs,

Changing

I am glad your bagworm is gone! (great name!)  Glad you are free.  Happy for you!

I am afraid I agree with you. BAGWORMS BE GONE!  I want the friends you describe  I know there are people out there.  I just don't know where to place my order!

Pops,

They will come because you will be like a healthy-person magnet!

Amen to this:   I think if someone cares for you and wishes you well, they applaud your doing what supports your health and well-being, and don't require you to act in a certain way in order to validate their existence. Those who don't, protest and slink away.
Anti-bagworms unite!

Hugs all around,
Carolyn

My T talks frequently about "TRUTH at ALL costs".  I am finding the realities of claiming truth and walking in it -- literally walking with courage into the face of all the costs. It may be a uphill climb but I love the clean air up here!!
