The total history of almost anyone would shock almost everyone. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960
What thinks ye?

I came across this quote today and it really meant a lot to me. Makes everyone seem equal and human. Shows we are all vulnerable, acceptable and connected once again. I grew up feeling quite inadequate and it took most of my life for me to be okay with myself. I would see myself as unacceptable to the whole of humanity which was better. Ends up, I am a part of that whole which is human, flawed and completely acceptable. What thinks ye?
I agree. I totally agree with it. People need to remember this when they decide to walk around with a chip on their shoulder. They need to remember that everyone has at least ONE horrible thing in their history and they have been effected by it, as well. NO ONE is alone in this fact. Reach out for help if you need to, there's plenty out there. I am now in love with this quote. I wish I could share it with a certain someone right now.
njmommy, yes! yes! This is a rather freeing quote! Goodluck with the meltdown and can't wait to hear more of what you have to say :)
SxdUp, glad you are loving it. Maybe you need to share with that someone? Don't wish it, do it! Possible?
This is a great quote! I hope that you won't mind if I repost it in my Circle Of Hope group, it would really fit....

Love this! We all have a story. Some of us put it out there more than others. I think many would be shocked at things that any one of us have been through and helped shape us into the persons we are now. Very good quote. I am coming back with more later. There's a meltdown going on in the other room.
