May 7, 2018 by Susie Morgan

“If you are far away from yourself, how could you ever be close to another?” -Yung Pueblo I’ve been saddened recently while reading proclamations by some of the seeming gloriousness of abandoning reliance on others – holding to the conviction this is the higher path as others have proven we have only our own selves […]

Feeling Attached

April 12, 2018 by Susie Morgan

“It turns out that the ability to step into the world on our own often stems from the knowledge that there is someone beside us whom we can count on – this is the dependency paradox.” -Amir Levine & Rachel Heller in “Attached” The book “Attached.” by Levine and Heller does an incredible job of […]
