Hyperbole

Relationship requires courage. Fear and denial are all too easy a road to descend, but they lead only to disconnection and loneliness. Courage is vital to making real connection. Without courage I have shrank my world to a myopic view through a pinprick lens. With courage I will see beyond the nose on my face to those around me that love and care for me. And with courage I see how those around me need my love and care.

The first step to healing an open wound is to stop the bleeding.
There's no way to work on problems manifest as scars from long ago while other parts are bleeding. Best to stop the bleeding first, and find stability again. Only in that place of stability will I find the strength to face the past. But for now -- triage.
