The question is: are we brave enough to accept it? Erica Jong Let’s say I’m stressing about the fact that my partner hasn’t done the dishes. In fact, she’s never done the dishes. Guess whose business it is what my partner does or doesn’t do? That’s right — her business. If I want the dishes done, that’s my business, and I can take care of it by making my way over to the sink.
