Last week, while leaving a meeting, one of the members of the group yells to me, "Happy Easter, Hilda". I respond to her, "Thank you, likewise", and make my way down the hall and out the building.

The realization hit me that no matter what I did for some folks it would never be enough.
I can be honest. I doubt myself a lot. Question and over analyze. To the point where there are many times that I talk myself out of things.
