Family is supposed to be safe…

Family is supposed to be our safe place. 

Very often, it’s the place where we find the deepest heartache.

My favourite therapist says that, unfortunately, most of us grow up learning what love is not, rather than what love is. Apparently, 8 % of people are fully estranged from their families, and 50 % have troubled relations. Makes me feel better about my family of origin, which felt all about discipline and not much comfort. Just sayin’ :) Hugs and good luck. XO
