Alcohol is one method that people use to "quiet" their mind or still their dark thoughts! <strong>Ricardo: </strong>Glad you enjoyed it. It can be very difficult to maintain a healthy sense of self-worth and sometimes it's for the benefit of someone else that you don't ever attain any self-esteem! I certainly struggle with getting external validation whether it's from being "nice" so that I give a good impression to worrying about how I look. A life without NEEDing approval - how free!

There are many people that don't have the internal power to sustain a healthy sense of self worth without input from others. A little is fine but putting it all on others is dangerous. This is something that I struggle with constantly. And I know that many others do as well. This is a good one.

Or close to home or something... Just earlier this week when my stress levels were through the roof I was thinking, "I wish there was a way to just STOP thinking!" Then I wondered if maybe that's part of the reason some people become alcoholics...

Yes, living and being and striving...it's moment by moment. Sue: Wow! I'm glad you like it! Especially since I felt like I just dashed it off. I've been trying to be more free with my writing these days and not gnawing on it so much. I'm a bit OCD about writing and wanting to get things "right" and "perfect" in general so it's great that you're enjoying this. Thank you.
