Abe Maslow,
famous for his Hierarchy of
Needs, defined our ultimate need: Self Actualization as follows, “Being free of the good opinion of others!â€
I like that phrasing.
People – well meaning, caring – people are always suggesting
– sometimes pushing ‘cures’ at me!
Look folks! I know you think you have the answer.
And, maybe you do.
But, god damn it! This is my freaking life.
And, I will resist your good intentions.
It’s not that I don’t want help.
It’s that I have lived with this mofo condition for 11
bloody years now.
And, fixing the freaking thing is MY responsibility.
And, I will do it at MY pace!
And, My way!
So, when you suggest that I should:
· Start taking massive doses of Vitamin Z,
· Get Rolfed,
· Or Whatever….
I will Thank You. Take note.
And, give it shot when I’m bloody well ready to.
Not before.
And, maybe never!
Got it?
