  Dreams We’ve all got ’em. That’s why first love and heartbreak infamously hurts so much. Everyone who’s older than third grade knows this, right? When my first husband left me, back in my early twenties, it wasn’t his physical presence that I missed.  That sucked monkey giblets: don’t misunderstand… but honestly, I didn’t even like…

• Self-soothe: an important skill

  

  The prodigal welcome. This feels too good to be true for me. I learned to expect painful treatment, as a kid, if I ever FINALLY penetrated through my parents’ constant miasma of negative self talk about stuff that I needed. Like a hug or a sweater or a quiet space or kind words. Not that…
