in our life to function as human beings. We have to do certain things we don’t want to do—to stay alive, participate in society, hold a job, take care of our family, stay out of jail, maintain successful relationships, and essentially, create a life we might want.

, and a host of other factors, we lose that connection and end up living in what can only be described as a constant state of should, andIn an effort to be seen as good—good parents, good partners, good friends, good workers, good daughters and sons, and just plain good people—we learn to function with one gauge above all others. Should becomes our way to be loved.

Regardless of whether you can give yourself what you want at the moment, perhaps there is a way to give yourself some of what you want while still accomplishing your should. You can acknowledge with self-compassion the fact that spending time with this difficult person is hard and that there’s a reason you don’t want to do it. And yet, that you’re choosing to do it anyway, which is courageous. And furthermore, that this hard thing you’re about to do aligns with your deeper values—your love for this woman’s son, and for her too in her suffering.
