It’s a mix

I know to be healthy, I need to be in touch with my feelings and do things that keep myself in a healthy frame of mind. Like today, I coached myself to get my work done and then exercised once my nervousness set in after all tasks were done. The result of exercise was a healthiness. I seemed to have a sense of context. A grounding. Then I came over to my parents' house and through an evolution of events I started to feel nervous again and felt dependent on my parents' to be there for me. The reminder came to me that I need to be self responsible about my life. So here I find myself. I'm dealing with the need to be in touch with my feelings and emotions which are so helped through socialization and at the same time I need to stand on my own two feet as it were. It's a duality I'm coming to be more and more faced with and prepared for.  Perhaps the human condition and life journey for us all. Thank goodness we have each other along the way. Peace. Mark
