I hate to be whiny, but....

I am beginning to listen to those voices that tell me that I really am a worthless POS. Even though objectively I know that isn't true. Is there anyone out there willing to help me out and remind me just why I am not a complete waste of oxygen?

You've got the tools for being happier

[7patches.livejournal.com]

I remember reading about Pat's Worthwhile Things (http://www.livejournal.com/talkread.bml?journal=patgreene&itemid=35588#cutid1) a few days ago. That's a woman who can take care of herself.

I see you as a person with integrity and self-respect. That is an important model for your children to see every day. One way I see you taking care of yourself is spiritually. You seek out your religious community to get reminders of what is important for you.

I'm glad you posted the link to that post; I need to add it to my memories so I can remember to look at it.

I'm still working on the self-respect part. I think I tend to ignore good things I do and concentrate on the negative.
