So yeah it was mostly about Megan. The ol solar plex was telling me “you're not wrong” and reminding me how important it is to listen to yourself. After all, it learned from the best. Still dont know “what to do” about it; often worry that im too passive as a parent, like my distaste for confrontation makes me swing too far away on the authoritarian continuum, but. I told her she needs some strategies, well i need some to. We all need hard stuff we can actually practice. That's almost always better than just needing to think harder or swear harder on our resolutions—or just sitting around fretting. (2015)
