• Console: Let me join you in your burden.

Mental worship

1. In what situations are you quick to be a fault-finder? 
2. Does anyone come to mind whom you need to build more trust with?
3. Is there harshness you need to take responsibility for?
4. What small thing do you need to stop obsessing over?
5. Are you losing or gaining relationships in the last 2 years?
