Well per my therapist's recommendation I asked my wife, who is away visiting her kids, if she wanted to see a picture of Laura. She readily said yes (seems it was good advice to ask her). I txt her the photo I use as my avatar here and her response I took as a compliment...quite different than last night's journal entry. Well her response to my picture was, I can tell it's a guy. Why did I treat that as a compliment? Perspective....I had expected her to say something bad like i looked ugly...to tell me she could tell I was a guy I took as better than I had expected (to be honest, I don't think she could tell but could not bring herself to say, wow! You look great! .-)). Perspective.....own it, embrace it; enjoy it and make it work for-not against you.
I am sincerely,
Laura Catherine
