A Valentine Gift of Memories

It wasFebruary 14th, and I was waking up in Niagara Falls. Not that I wassurprised, it’s where I fell asleep. Just saying. Hubby and I went away for achange of scene, but mostly to re-connect with friends we don’t see nearlyoften enough. We had a good first evening of food, libation, and catchupconversation. Yes, getaways with long-time friends are always heartwarming.

There’ssomething else I look

“Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?”

“Egocentricity is a problem, however, when it becomes exaggerated and is not balanced by such social traits as love, empathy, and altruism, the capacity for which is probably also represented in our genome. Interestingly, very few of us think to look for egocentricity in ourselves, although we are dazzled by it in others.”
― Aaron T. Beck, Prisoners Of Hate: The Cognitive Basis of Anger, Hostility, and Violence
