Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 A woman on another who has had much trouble in her life and seems pretty attached to hanging on to her grievances has helped me to look at my own life. It is a good example of borrowing benefits. As I read some of her posts and her refusal to make an effort to get herself out of her quagmire, I recognized some of those same tendencies in myself. There have been several posts back and forth with a few group members and the moderator as well. Each time it is clear she is determined to maintain her hurt. She does sound like she is in a difficult situation emotionally, physically and financially at present. At first I wanted to be rather hard nosed in my postings. Someone else came in first and was pretty direct. I came in a bit more gentle yet still pretty direct in my response which basically was that the more I focus on what I want the better off I am. Her reply was pretty much, " You don't understand. " Not so, dear. I understand all too well Poor Little Old Me (PLOM). Someone commented that she keeps posting and spending more effort than it would take her to actually do the process the group is all about. Since that post she has not replied again up till now. Hopefully, she is busy doing the process and not just feeling sorry for herself. I am still doing self examination as a result of these exchanges. Thank you ***** for assisting me in this process.
