- Go to The Word of the Day is Delay
I'm not sure about others,but
in my life, delay is the word that is very closely related to the habit that I excel in: PROCRASTINATING.

I love what you and Wiley have. And I agree; it is a good sign with 'himself' to be asking what could've been done differently. Very humble of him. And because of that, I was asking myself the same question.

I just read your earlier post and then this one. Yes it's tough but now I
am free from all that and Wiley and I give each other the right to be who we are. It is wonderful.
I pray I never get drawn back into the innability to say wait. oe even No....but perhaps this morning himself was trying to understand where he can omprove. Tis a good sign I think. and yes teach yourself then you will teach others becuase you are so deliciously honest.

THANK you for reminding me that I'm not alone in this malady...I think so many of us struggle with this, on differing levels. I both admire and shake my head at one of my sisters, who gets people to do stuff for her right and left. That doesn't mean that they like her, though. There's a fine line between being firm and...bossy. I want to find that line and draw it!

''Their"???
In spite of the evidence to the contrary, I
do know when to use and how to spell "they're"...

I've just caught up with all your latest posts - and their all very interesting to me because of your ability to observe and reflect, and above all your ability to write so well about your observations and reflections...
And I know about the problem of setting boundaries; I also am inclined to be - let's use the word 'nice' for shorthand purposes (yeah, I know, it's hard to believe, LOL), even when 'being nice' is being exploited - but my tether is far shorter than yours, and so is my patience, and both my tether and I tend to snap more or less simultaneously...
