**Well said, Jaye. I think this is the core issue in most human
interactions!! Don't we all want our feelings validated, either those of
concern or those of sadness or happiness or exuberance or despair or
whatever...? This is the legacy from being a volunteer bf counsellor for 13
years that I cherish and bring into my LC-work.

**I often tell women/parents: "It's hard to tell how it will work out. Even
if a certain situation has a 80/20% chance of failure/success... if you are
in the 20%-group, your success is 100%!
Yeah, right... my math is not all that wonderful, but I think this is right
nevertheless! hahaha
Warmly,
