Sad, huh? > Marshalee Marshalee, One of the most difficult lessons I have had to learn as a counselor (and a human being) is to allow others to make choices that I don't agree with, even if those choices (as I view them) kill the person prematurely. It doesn't feel good to me to get caught up with martyrdom, "poor me," blaming the other person, villifying or denigrating the other person, etc. It doesn't help me evolve and it doesn't help the other person either. When someome is being self-destructive, all I can do is point out what I see, explain what I think their options are, and then be totally okay with whatever the person decides. Otherwise, I'm attached to the person doing what I think they should be doing. Attachment like that wears a person down and saps their strength. It doesn't respect the other person's sovereignty. And it doesn't let you be free, either, because you're always dependent on an outside source to feel good. Hard lessons, but if you manage to learn them, boy does it make you free.
