but i also own my neuroses. there's a lot going on, and i'm prickly and stiff and often pugnacious with a frigid veneer.
as a friend just said in another context, "To be aware is to be challenged." i can't presume the former without accepting the latter.
this is all just so horrible. partly, i direct my critique inwards (in-family) because it's manageable and (i keep thinking) possibly constructive in a limited way. my feelings about the actual authors of this situation and these divisions are far less coherent and completely unprintable.
