You can be as happy as you want to be, if you can love you, and all your wonderful faults. You can make yourself and your heart and your love as strong and as resilient as any superhero with regenerative properties, for sure. You've got a great gift in you, every single one of us does. As hard as you try, though, you can't love someone into loving themselves.
You can't force someone into having self esteem, force them into being happy. You cannot make someone be someone that they are not, and more importantly, someone they don't want to be. Try as many times as you want. Again and again. I know from experience, from both perspectives; that if you are not ready to change and don't want to change, no amount of pressure can make it happen.
You can, once again, make you and your ability to love strong and able to heal you. I sometimes have to deal with things and angers I thought I let go of, long ago, it's a continuous process. I like to think of it as a form of upkeep, of periodic maintenance if you will. It's differs only in that I don't decide when I need to deal with feelings of abandon from the time I was lost in the supermarket as a kid, it happens all on its own. YAY! It is then dealt with, and then we move on. The thing is, if you are healthy emotionally, you can do so much, you are able to be so much more. The choice is always yours.
