Hi Dinah,
I, too, am glad you have a great husband to help support you. You deserve it.
I just finished the book. I actually got one main point from it. (I tend to summarize everything I read into it's simplest form.) The message I heasrd him give is that each person is expected to make mistakes. Nobody is, or will be perfect. In acceting this, a person should feel relief from the pressures of punishing oneself and from the pressures of striving for perfection. He makes really good arguements for his case.
I am glad you have ordered it again. Maybe you will read it differently this time. I guess it all depends on what state you are in at the time. Since I am working on self-forgiveness right now, a lot of it hit close to home.
I am glad you didn't throw your hands up and leave the board. I read on of Beardy's last posts. I guess she won't be around regularly like I had hoped. I hate to see people go.
I also think I really hurt Lou's feelings on the PBF board. Now I don't know what to do about it. Yikes.
