Fear is necessary for sure, in some intances...sometimes I think even in relationships it alerts us to something not so right..not necessarily with the guy or the relationship, but perhaps something that needs to be addressed in ourselves...then there's the kind that just freezes us or completely messes everything up...i really like the concept of being ok to mourn and cry..maybe we even have fear in really feeling the feeling and that can perpetuate fear too...cuz we never really get in there and climb out of it all the way...i don't know i'm rambling too...i like the analogy Lorelai shared about reading the book and having her experienced effected because of the fear of something bad happening..i do that often with more situations than I probably realize...it is what it is..all we can do is work on being open...and realizing the strength we do have...we're awesome ladies..we're going to be just fine...Bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02025889206463120364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5586889322001976439.post-42187593080213204302008-12-10T18:30:00.000-07:002008-12-10T18:30:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02025889206463120364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5586889322001976439.post-74553857516158573142008-12-10T12:18:00.000-07:002008-12-10T12:18:00.000-07:00I agree with you that relationships themselves are...I agree with you that relationships themselves are an entity. The 'us' that is gone. What now? I think it is easy to allow fear to creep in even when things are going fine. It is like when I read the book The Secret Life of Bees. It is a great book but I kept expecting a graphic Color Purple experience. Because of that I read with trepidation until the last page when allow bad things happened nothing horribly graphic. I wasted that whole book thinking something bad was going to happen. And it never did. <BR/><BR/>I guess my rambling point is sometimes I let fear get the best of me. There is definately time for healing and even time for fear but I hope that I won't let it ruin a good thing.Lorelaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05147869170454376311noreply@blogger.com
