Boundaries and such

In addition to juggling the emotions and symptoms of MS I am also beginning some much needed work of personal reflection and relationship building. I just finished reading "Safe People" by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend (the same guys that wrote "Boundaries"). All of these books are excellent. I read it thinking I was identifying unsafe people in my life only to find out that I have unsafe characteristics as well.  Go figure. So I am currently doing a deep internal review of things that I do such as not having boundaries and holding on to stuff from my past. Whew, tough stuff but I know it is necessary for growth! It is difficult to establish boundaries while at the same time learning to ask for help.
