Yeah, just... Brad has a lot going on that I didn't know about. I keep thinking that maybe when people do things that might hurt others, it's not really about them at all.
My therapist (I saw a therapist after my parents died) told me that the things people do are a reflection of who they are and have nothing to do with you. I've told Liz this before, but it just hit home when he told me everything that was going on.
I keep thinking about the things people have done or said to me and wondered if maybe they had something going on that I didn't know about, either. Maybe I should have acted differently.
The Carpenters. 70's Band. Easy listening. I'm sure they've got a record here somewhere.
Good People are allowed to get angry. Do you know how often Cap got pissed at me? A lot. Do you know how many times he hesitated to let me know this? Never. I even deserved it sometimes.
