Lemon Meringue Pie & A Pychotherapist

http://www.brenebrown.com/about/ Over the last two years my obsession with travel has now provided me with a wall of maps;  flyer's, travel books and learning new languages. I spend my time, creatively thinking of ways to save and ways to get there and why I want to go and what is my purpose and different reasons why I want to go. The idea of teaching in China, was not really much supported, and now I see why. The plan was not really thought out, "do I want to teach in China?" After much research and looking into options, well sure on a short term contract. The idea was not really thought through, like many of my ideas. Fleeting ideas, "I'm going to be a Astronaut!" I am going to join the RCMP! OK the wanting to be a Astronaut clearly was a ego booster for my self, that I can do anything, and really..lol I can!

About 60 % of teens are dealing with stress that an adult in there mid 30's is dealing with. You read about teen suicide in the media, sometimes you see it first hand in your career, sometime a friends child has a accident. When it is your own child, that as a illness, sickness...relapse. your world dies in that moment. You want to say everything you can possibly say and hope that they see, sometimes they don...
