That's what I'm trying to do. My ego (expectation, desire) is making me stressed out. I need to learn to let go, to live for the moment. I do well for awhile but then it creeps up on me again. I feel like I'm struggling today. It might be the college thing making me more anxious then usual...I'm having thoughts like, "what have I done? what have I gotten myself into?" that kind of thing. I feel alone right now and isolated, trying not to think about how good it would feel to just be mean to myself. I know that's not the answer. Actually, rambling on like this is really helping at the moment. Composing my thoughts is soothing me.
B R E A T H E that's what I'm trying to do. Centering myself...I'm okay I think. I hope. I am. More rambling. I think I'm going to go try and distract myself with some writing now.

Thank you Jo...I ended up going to sleep and staying asleep for 9 hours. I didn't even know I was so tired. My sleep schedule is so out of whack right now. I get pretty cranky/depressed when I'm tired. I feel good right now though.
thank you
love,
Michelle

I don't know what the secret to sleeping long is! I think it has something (for me) to do with dreaming, because I only sleep that long if I'm having interesting dreams.
Okay, so I had my second day of college today and I came home feeling great. I feel really content right now. I met and spoke to about 10 different people...that's right...strangers and I'm sort of proud of myself for that because I feel awkward and tongue-tied around people I don't know. So it was nice to come out of my shell a little.
All in all, a great day!
