> I know for a fact that I have the power inside of me to figure things out for myself without the help of Bubba. However, at this moment I'm so blinded by the misfortunes of my own past that I would not truly learn the lessons I would have to without reliving them over and over again, without the guidance of my Bubba. He's not really pointing things out to me that I don't already know. He's only gently holding my hand (metaphorically of course) while I learn these things on my own, so I don't go through life repeating the same cycles over and over again, and pass the same traits on to my children.

I've been chasing my tail for quite a while, and now I'm not running in circles quite so much. Maybe I could have made this progress on my own, but without his help, I hardly think I would have faced what I needed to on my own and asked the hard questions of myself that he wasn't afraid to. I'm not quite "fixed" yet but I'm a much better person than I was before I met Bubba and I make it a point to thank him every night before I go to sleep, even if I don't thank him in person. So, how could I deny the power of therapy, I ask you?

Karen,

Thanks for this post. I've read it a few times as it struck quite a few chords with me and I appreciate you're reminding me of what therapy is, can be, and might be for me. I'll keep my faith that it is working.

All Done
