We get EXACTLY what we need, exactly when we are ready.
If your niece needs to go to jail, it could be there is someone there she NEEDS to meet, or something there she NEEDS to hear.
Once I heard that, I was better able to get out of the way, and allow my daughter the dignity of learning lessons... instead of me blocking those lessons in order to save her from pain.
The younger we learn the lessons, the less painful they are.
You, dear woman, are sounding very good. It takes what it takes. Your recovery is bright.
Keep up the good work.
((hugs))
