So when I look back at my history with her, there are a lot of good memories with play because she was more like my age.

So we can have a lot of fun together.

She just couldn't care for me or create a safe container or boundaries or be consistent in any way because she wasn't able to do that for herself.

And so we did have a lot of fun in those moments where, you know, we were being kids together.

And I knew that she had a lot of love for me.

And also I saw a lot of suffering.

There was a lot of self-harm and a lot of her having to be in somewhere else so that she could survive.

Right.

And so that helped me build a lot of compassion once I moved through it.

True compassion, I was probably 28 years old.

Yeah, I mean, I knew that she was, but it was more painful for me.

So I remember packing my whole world into my backpack and running away in the middle of the night from foster homes and walking for three to four hours in the middle of the night to show up on her doorstep and sleeping outside on her doorstep, wanting her to let me in.

Or her, you know, she was in the hospital a lot and so often she wouldn't even be there.

So I was just a kid looking for the love of her mom, you know, and I loved my mom a lot.

And so eventually that sort of turned into bitterness and a really rough exterior, which is how I started, which is a lot of anger.

Even really as a kid, that was my main mechanism.

Like I was much more comfortable sharing anger than sadness.

We all have this.

It's either anger on the front or sadness on the front.

And what's underneath it is the opposite emotion.
