Out And About

[Monarch]

My honey and I went out last night, had dinner and then went to a club downtown where his friends band was playing. Good stuff, kinda R&B, funk, good to dance to and we had a fun time. Chris was shocked when I said yes, that I would like to go, really I think he had to pick his chin up off the floor. Then I think he expected me to back out after dinner but I didn't want to, I needed to get out and not go tot he movies or do something boring. It was fun to take in a band, something i need to do more of, have fun! It reminds me not to take everthing so seriously and that while I am dealing with these issues inside myself, there is a whole World of really cool shit out there to do.

Nice going!

while I am dealing with these issues inside myself, there is a whole World of really cool shit out there to do.

I think this is a really valuable insight. When I am able to put my troubles away--not to ignore them or pretend they don't exist, but put them away for a short time--it helps me feel freer. And more capable of managing things when I come back to them.

Great, this is great. Once you have done this, there is plenty more to see out there. It's a cornucopia of enjoyment (sometimes!)

It is amazing..sometimes when i am out and enjoying myself...I find myself thinking like that. If I just got out more often...I am sure I would feel better too. The isolation really can take a toll on our spirit. Mind, body and soul.
