Song of the week
"finally get it together"
I realized this is not about me and someone else, i have been singing this song all week (and a lot of the month) because I am working on finally getting it (my life, my identity, me) together
Do I know who I am or where I am going or what I want? No, but maybe I shouldn't get all meta about it,

I have no real comments other than I am reading and appreciating. I am in a tough, self-loathing place. And while not suggesting that is where you are also, hearing you deal with insecurity and self-doubt lets me know that my introspection and challenges are not unique.
hey there,
someone on the website i frequent asked (we have a question of the week)what is the best advise you've ever gotten and catching up tonight, it came to mind that it is good advice, or rather a good insight, so i feel like sharing.
incidently, i think the context of the original advice was also weight loss, a topic close to my heart as well....
some ladies had dropped rediculous amounts of weight after years and years of yo-yo dieting and fads and feeling awful and they were asked how did they finally do it. each of them remarked (actually i was surprised how each of them said the same thing) that one day they just started doing it. there was no event they had to lose weight for, there was no brilliant inspiration, there was no new mindset, there was no trick or secret; they just started to do what they said they were going to DO what they knew they had to without bitterness or headspace or whatever. and of course it worked and they lost the weight and were happy, and the success alone motivated them to keep it off. they just changed. don't think...do. that goes for everything in life. there are very few times or contexts when we really get rejected. most of the time, we just hold ourselves back.
that being said, i've hit a wall too. i'm hoping i'm just tired and my energy and motivation will come back with a little rest, but it's hard to keep putting in your effort and feeling you're doing all you can and still have nothing happen for you. especially when, as you know you're neglecting your career, spiritual, and social needs when you are very focused on dating. sighhh. my new goal is to go to sleep earlier and wake up earlier. after having my sleep pattern disturbed, i just appreciate a good night's sleep soooooo much, and i like being up with the sun. i think it'll help with the rest of it.
