The martyr vs the maniac is a fascinating dichotomy!

Thank you. The maytyr seeks to save the world at the expense of themself. The coward seeks to save themself at the expense of the world. In either case, both recieve nothing for their efforts.

Tim, this is wonderful. Eternally timely but especially now -- and beautifully said. I'll be quoting from this post, I'm sure. -- Blessings to you, Naomi Rose

Thank you so much for saying so, Naomi. I still want to do that writing workship for therapists with you. Life just got real complicated after I got Covid last year. I am starting to catch up, but I still want to make that happen!

I would still like that too, Tim. I’m so sorry that you got Covid in the first place, and that its effects lasted that long. I’m glad to hear you’re in a place to feel like you’re catching up.

I’ll be occupied with leading a Co-Writing Sanctuary in March - May (https://www.naomirose.net/the-cowriting-sanctuary). But at the moment I have no plans for summer or fall (or winter, I don’t yet know how to plan ahead that far), so perhaps somewhere in there might work for our collaboration, if it does for you.
