But then last summer I went through a major house move that totally disrupted my life and brought my writing to a halt. But that’s really just an excuse.

Rather than focusing on the problems with the person out there, stop and consider what&#8217;s being triggered in us. It&#8217;s a way to start changing the relationship, beginning with ourselves. &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- What to Do [...]]]></description>
