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.

Breathing is a good thing
Deep cleansing breats

Could you get out and do something good for yourself
Maybe a nap or a nice bubble bath ?

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

9 hrs???
I'm jealous
What's your secret?

I'm glad you feel better now

Jo

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!

Awesome
I am so glad that you had a great day and bravo to talking to others
That is how friends are made
