when I 'detach' from what others think, then I don't feel that way at
all. It is what we think anyway!>>>>>>

Hi Sally,

That is a great - above.....however.....

I went to this great workshop at the weekend....described on this web
site....http://www.thework.com/index.htm

and came away knowing that it's o.k. to self-blame....my "problem
statement" was

Marlene, daughter, shouldn't blame me for her relationship break-ups

and it became

It's o.k. for Marlene to blame me....

It's o.k. for me to blame myself

These being interim steps when the great leap to

blame doesn't belong anywhere is too hard to jump.

I can hold myself sweetly.

I can explain the process more if you want.

love
Pauline.
Also where on page is the article "When the Going Gets Rough"

I printed it out and want to comment and now can't find it.
thanx.
