Ok thank you! We talked yesterday about the need to talk more on a regular basis (hear her talk). I hope we can accomplish this.
Yes... Cat has given you great guidance here. And it is not easy to "be" in such tense circumstances. And... so maybe focus on being able to accomplish just a little bit of this at a time. And ... be aware of your internal sense of peace. When you can't feel it, likely it's not coming across. And when it gets invaded, like someone putting their hand in the cookie jar, protect it by becoming stoic.
Eventually you'll come to a clearing where how to act will more evident.
Truly - one step at time.
Peace be yours in your heart - for you and through you.
