- em-bee 5y agothis is interesting. i think it can be generalized. not just for ongoing rough situations but even for someone having a rough day, or a rough moment. in that moment who are the people in the circles around me. and in whose outer circles am i? in a married couple the partners are usually supporting each other. so they are in each others outer circles. if my wife had a rough day then her circle takes precedence, and it's my job to comfort her. if i had a rough experience then i seek comfort from my wife. now my circle matters more for the moment.
- RyJones 5y agoThank you so much. This is the exact item I read years ago, and hadn’t been able to find again to give to people.
