I Realize That I

I realize that I won't become pretty.

The Cultural Implications of Beauty are that "Human beauty is a reflection of cultural perceptions and ideas of aesthetics are indigenous to that area." (13) "Beauty is not one's own, but a reflection of one's culture." (46)Dead Link Removed

You are so beautiful to me.:hug::whistling: Sings like Joe Cocker...

I realize I can eat several blueberry scones in quick cession and not feel guilty...just nauseous. Big step allowing myself to eat treats in fear of being too fluffy.

I realize it is time to put distance with some old 'friendships'. I put it in quotes because I am looking back and simply accessing how I am feeling and have felt in the past...ya ya, feeling aren't facts, but experiences are.

feeling aren't facts, but experiences are.

Experience' value can and does change with time, though?

Thanks @Cashew, I feel that has been my catalyst for seeking change.

I realize that I ...have big problems to make days or events special for me.

I realize that I feel responsible for anything.

I realize that I tend to act like a servant.

Thank you so much @Cashew for the encouragement to my being a techno phobe to actually keeping up. It meant a lot to me.

I realize that it is time for me to take a step back to gain some distance and a fresh perspective with some people.'

I realize that everyone is where they are currently at and it does not mean they will stay that way, anything could happen. Trying to be positive.

@gizmo, unless a choice made out of willful ignorance & bullying others with it, there ain't a thing like a technophobe, only people without enough chances to learn to use this or that tech productively ;) (So: You're welcome. Happy continued learning.)

Thank you @Cashew very much for the encouragement.

Today while talking on the phone to a friend, I realized a new pattern is finally happening within me. Mornings, yeah I have had tons of horrible ones and I realize that even though I may wake up anxious and negative thoughts bombarding me, somehow I have been able to turn it around and make myself feel much better. Today is the second time that I have been able to go without anxiety meds! It turned around and I feel better now and have been able to sustain this for a whole day.

I realize that my attitude about the new upcoming job, sucks. I realize I am sabotoging myself with this attitude. What I don't completely realize is, why??? I chose to be self employed for the past 24 yrs, so I could manage my symptoms and not go full tilt boogie when things got bad... Now I am going to working for the public, in a very sedate atmosphere. I just don't know how my energy is going to work out here... But I am going to try.
