You're Okay...I'm Okay...

I remember a book of this title back in the 70's...I never read it, but here is a sample of what it was all about:

Four life positions
The phrase I'm OK, You're OK is one of four "life positions" that each of us may take. The four positions are:

1. I'm Not OK, You're OK
2. I'm Not OK, You're Not OK
3. I'm OK, You're Not OK
4. I'm OK, You're OK

The most common position is I'm Not OK, You're OK. As children we see that adults are large, strong and competent and that we are little, weak and often make mistakes, so we conclude I'm Not OK, You're OK. Children who are abused may conclude I'm Not OK, You're Not OK or I'm OK, You're Not OK, but this is much less common. The emphasis of the book is helping people understand how their life position affects their communications (transactions) and relationships with practical examples.

I seem to gravitate to the "I'm Not OK, You're Okay" position most....whenever something goes wrong in my life...I feel it is my fault...that there is something wrong with me...
I said not too long ago I wasn't going to write much about my personal life unless it was in a story form so most would not understand...I've digressed from that in the last few days..but will soon return to that format...anyway I've got to find a way to stop blaming myself for everything...I may be "broken" by past relationships...but the men I've been in relationships with have been "broken" themselves in their own and different ways...so it isn't my fault..it isn't their fault that "we" didn't work...we just couldn't work through all the problems we had with ourselves...let alone the problems that arise as a couple...
Maybe we gave up too soon...felt it was too much work or that it wasn't going to work no matter how much effort we put into the relationship...I've always tried not to give up..but maybe I did in some things...maybe I was given up on too soon...not given chances I deserved...but it's all in the past...I can't do anything to change any of it...so I need to go forward and quit rereading the last chapters in my life...how will I ever know how the story ends if I keep revisiting what is already done and over...so life here I come...

So come with me and see where life takes me...I'm okay...you're okay...life just has so many twists and turns who knows how it will end up or what I'll find around the next corner...the Wizard or the Prince...or something else entirely...but whatever I find I am going to live my life to its fullest and try to enjoy it more and be happier...
I hope you do too...take chances...risks...if you love...love like there is no tomorrow and tell them now...if you're not happy...change something until you are...be passionate about life...about love...because...

I'm done with the mediocre in life...in love...I want the Mad Passionate Extraordinary Love...

Do you???????????
