I lost my mother 4 months ago and am really struggling. I love to read so a self-help book idea would be appreciated. Thank you.<br /><br />I am so sorry for your loss.

The whole time he put me down and made nasty comments about my ability even though he knew I'm just learning the game. Should I move on?<br /><br />Run. Don&#039;t walk, run away from this guy. If he&#039;s making nasty remarks now, imagine what he&#039;ll do if he thinks you are looking at some other guy. If he&#039;s that insecure that he&#039;d have to put others down in order to shore up his own ego, he&#039;s 50 miles of bad road.

If so, what?<br /><br />Yes, I used to believe a person was either good or bad, now I realize we all have potential for both, and that the best realization is that &quot;good&quot; and &quot;bad&quot; are but labels.

Agree or disagree? Why?<br /><br />Agreed. Any time something as critical as self valuation is based upon something transient - and face it, it&#039;s all transient, then there is bound to be a downward spiral when the house of cards caves, as it inevitably does.
