Learn2Live - thank you! In thinking about your post, I realized something. I do consider myself balanced. I have clear interests, likes and dislikes. I decide what I want to spend my time doing and don't feel bad saying 'no'. I like and am proud of my life.

That said, I can say I have not been successful at maintaining that balance while in a loving relationship, perhaps speaking to my co-dependence. I have allowed insecurity to creep in, and consequently given up too much of myself. This relationship has been my most successful at maintaining a healthy personal balance while opening up to a partner. For that reason, I am not finished.

I truly believe this break can be a good thing for me. I am the only one with the ability, the power, to make it so.
