Sylphseven says,
They say, never say never. I racked my brains to find the answer to this one. I thought, I will never have a large nose. Then I imagined an unfortunate accident that would leave me with a large nose... It is the same with almost everything that comes to mind. It's not always the accident, there is the odd twist of fate too.MrsPremise says,
This sounds really terrible but I can say it out loud now. My mother has passed on, and I've accepted the truth.I will never have my mother's approval.

It won't come as a shock to anyone when I say my daughter's love is something I never expect to have.LucidDreamer says,
The one I love - he doesn't love me and that isn't going to change. My feelings for him haven't faded with time, so I guess I'm stuck with it. MrsP and Sag - your comments were so sad - sucks it has to be so heartbreaking sometimes.MrsPremise says,
Sag, when she comes around, I hope you're still available. I could be screwy as all get-out, but that good old "dance of anger" is a hard on to break for me.Lucid, I don't know why we hang on to a hope the way we do, but I feel better now than I have ever felt. What's that quote about giving up hope...?
I love my friends here...

Acceptance of myself.Level1 says,

the one thing I want more than anything- my son to not be autistic.LucidDreamer says,
Ah, KharisJo - your comment hits the mark. To want something so much for someone else - no purer evidence of love than that.Jujeebal says,
This question really taps into so much raw emotion. I think what connects all of us is both the suffering that we experience as well as the little joys that we all feel at times. I can personally relate to several of the responses which makes my heart heavy. I do believe what MrsP. says about not giving up hope. So realities cannot change, KharisJo, however, one's relationship to it might. Sending wishes for peace to everyone here.Dhani says,
I will never have a body that is REAL. (The body is an illusion created by the ego to separate itself from its Source, some call that Source God.)
