Listening is so important. I love to hear this and a skill I am always working on
2023-06-05 10:44:06 +0000 UTCYes I was like that often too
2023-06-05 10:43:39 +0000 UTCI am so sorry you had this experience with your grandfather and thank you for sharing. I really appreciated reading this powerful share
2023-06-05 10:43:17 +0000 UTCAs a kid, [12-14] I realized nothing I did was good enough for my grandfather. I quit trying to please him or others. The few people that I care about are the opinions that matter to me. ~ that grandfather refused the invitation to my wedding, he wanted me to leave the reception to give me money..... Those that showed up for me, are the ones I care about. *If we are not mostly happy with ourselves, we have nothing to spare for others. <3
