Dreams For The Future
Manage episode 424362204 series 3002245
Debra Allcock Tyler’s dream for the future involves people being a bit more thoughtful and intentional. “It's not that we have to agree with each other. It's about the way we engage. I'd really like to see, some kind of kindness.” “I am the eldest of four children. I come from a massive mixed race Anglo Indian Catholic family. My mother's one of seven. I have loads and loads of cousins. I struggled a lot with mental health in my young years. I had a massive breakdown when I was in my early thirties. I'm turning 60, my mother's turning 80. My parents celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. My nephew is 18, my niece is, 21”.
Asked what her older self would say to her younger self, Debra replies “ I would say to myself, pay more attention to what you think about you rather than what other people think about you. I would go back to myself and say, tell the truth about how you're feeling , get the help that you need rather than just keep going. My grandmother used to say, what other people think of you is none of your business.”.
