I love the following quote from David Richo (yep, I am on a David Richo run right now, followers!!) because it reminds us that its not wrong to seek healthy attachments within which we are shown love, acceptance and attention. The fact is if we were raised without these we may think we don’t ‘deserve’ them. But nothing could be further from the truth, but we don’t have to abandon our True Self in the search for approval.

Yes this is a good one. Works for me.

I do too. Part of deep emotional neglect.
