I do think too much, particularly about my interelations with others. I need to know where I am with them, to antiicipate difficulties, awkwardnesses before they arise. It’s learnt behaviour, the product of being a child of a volatile and powerful parent. And, I should remember that I am not a child any longer. I can manage, and have done so countless times. And that mostly people mean well. I want to detach myself, to protect. Perhaps this isn’t always necessary. Not now.
27 yeaars married. Mahogany, apparently. A milestone. Possibly. It is marked quietly, with no fuss.
