My houseguest left yesterday, and waking up early, there is the feeling in this place of wanting her back again. And another feeling arises, a belief system: It is so much better to feel more. How sad are people who must shut down and guard their hearts? Like some relatives who became less articulate and seem exceedingly attached to materialistic things. Poor little them? And naturally, if they must shut down, they never want to say sorry for anything. They could just say "Sorry you suffered, sorry about that abusive other one," but that's too much for them. I don't think it would be too much for me at all. I would say it in a minute. That's why I think growing up in a conservative Christian cult with strict rules and gender roles did not help them.
