Ugh! I struggle with this one!! Growing up in a Portuguese Catholic home, the guilt and shame were thick! Don't get me wrong, my parents were very loving, but it's just part of the culture and well, the whole keeping a record of wrongs is just so ingrained that it's hard to break out of. That being said, I am trying! I am trying to rewire my brain to process things differently. I'm trying to remember to take a breath and respond rather than react. Thanks for the reminder. ❤

It is a struggle, @crowbarmama! Breaking free of old mindsets is very difficult, for sure. I totally get it! You're doing a great job! <3
