> Thanks Susan.... you mean there is no boogeyman? I think...you are right . it is about realizing things....realizing our potential, realizing what we want, and what we are willing to give to get it, and realizing that being happy is even more important than being happy for others' happiness. Now... if I could just apply that.

Hmh. I've never been happy for others' happiness. I've always been envious of it. Trying to steer clear of happy people, because it made my own unhappiness more unbearable. But then being around unhappy people, although sometimes it seems like the only thing left besides alone, is worse. Worse. Not worth it. Not a life I want. But the boogeyman? It's us. It's just inside us. Not out there, not under the bed, behind the shower curtain, in the mirror..
