Level 5

I learned that TAG from "Tag, you're it!", stands Touch And Go. Never thought about it being an acronym before.

That some people in your life that are related or not simply are worth associating with very often!

Einstein was right, time is relative. The older I get, the faster it keeps passing by

Level 8

I recently completed 20+ years of counseling, introspection, drugs, education, re-education, family investigation, and even the shedding of my old beliefs and adopting a new set in order to say "my mother and I did not develop the normal mother-child bond". This led to intense trust issues and a dramatic negative impact upon:

  1. my ability to make and keep friends;
  2. my ability to engage in relationships;
  3. my openness - the lack of trusting and defensiveness made me a bit of an argumentative, angry recluse;
  4. my feelings of empathy were nearly non-existent. I felt no emotional bonds with my own spouse and kids.

Now how to eliminate the problem.

@Redcupcoffee my grandmother blamed it on herself. when my mom was born, during WWII, my grandma was working for the war effort and left mom with a elderly woman during the day barely 10 days after the birth. She was a young mother (24) and had little idea what to do anyway and her husband had just left her preggo and in New Orleans as the Army sent him off. My mom ended up acerbic and defensive all her life - quite different from my aunt and uncle who were born years later.

I've learned that sometimes it's worth paying someone to do the hard work/labor, and, save yourself some time and grief.
