therapy

I seriously love my therapist.  I think we could actually hang out and be friends. but anyway, she is so helpful - each time I go there I leave with at least one nugget of insight or one action I can take to change my life or my attitude.  And a few of them have been spot on!  I wish I would have found her years ago.  I only have one more free session through my work EAP but I found out my co-pay is only going to be $25 so I think I can still afford to go if I need to after the free sessions end.  I am pulling myself up again after the last little blow.  My main goal righ tnow is to live in the "present" - to stop ruminating on the past and to stop dwelling on the future and how awful it might be.  It's liberating! I do tend to think, "Oh poor me - I am getting older and older and I will never have a partner, and this whole weekend will be terrible and on and one...." I'm also taking a break from online dating, not because I think it's so terrible, but because I want to try to meet someone who is not a complete stranger - maybe through connections - I know it's unlikely at this age, but we will see.
