Oh that roller coaster is so familiar. We get our hopes up, we trust. we ask them to do something and think they will, we tell them how we feel....up the coaster goes.
Our hopes get dashed, they violate out trust, they don't do what we asked and they forget our heartfelt pleas and down the coaster goes.
Living from crisis to crisis becomes addictive even to us.
That is why we have to get off. We have to start doing for ourselves, not depending on them, meeting our own needs, living our own lives.
