I can totally relate. I could re-feel those rejections. My father would not talk about it. And I would not stop showing up wanting that acceptance. I am still trying to come to terms and he has been dead for several years now.
And thanks for reminding me to wait for that person who does not make me feel like I need to 'edit'. That's powerful.
Yessssss CorBen.
