Journal Entry for November 30, 2007 Mood
Friday, November 30, 2007

 

 Well, I finally get to sit and reflect. The early sunset makes the nighttime longer and less desire to go out and do things outside. I think we all suffur from terminal amnesia. I know what to do, why the hell can't I mobilize the energy and get motivated and just do it. I think that being alone may be the excuse. That if I feel uncared for than maybe I am unworthy of being careable. HHHMM, good bs but in my heart I know if it's to be than it's up to me.

 Must work on more balance . I find the caring on this website wonderful and mostly genuine. How strange that stangers seem to be more open and willing to share than those in my family. Wasn't it Thomas Payne that said " stranger are just unmet friends".

 Busy day today; another week closer to the starting line- not the finishing line.

    Yes, if you mobilise the energy and 'just do it' and meet people who do care you will reverse the feeling. People who are on this site are here as we all want the same thing...some support, some Daily Strength to get us through!..and to give back also whatever we have learnt, or sometimes just a hug, or a kind word. The result is that we then have the confidence to intervene and comment to others who we build a rapport with. Sometimes our families are the last people we could speak of such things to...much as we love them (or not)!!
