I recognized myself in your response to this article and I want to thank you for that. I knew in my mind that this was what I had to do as a child growing up in an abusive household but I didn’t realize that it had robbed me of my sense of self. I have been repeating this pattern my whole life and it wasn’t until I retired from my career that I realized that I had no idea who I was anymore. I had no one to serve anymore therefore I had no purpose. But I have found a new purpose… figuring out what I want and need now. Amazing!
