A Place to Blab
I have to admit that I feel like I'm living one big lie sometimes. So here's my way of making myself feel better. While doing my best to look put together yet relaxed, athletic yet feminine, organized but not anal, kind yet firm, aware of what's going on with peopole but not a busy-body, laid back but not lazy....(I'll stop there because my list can go on and on) I HAVE TO ADMIT: I FAIL! Time and time and time again, I fail at what seems to be the easiest things. But you know what else, I HAVE TO ADMIT: I SUCCEED. Sometimes I succeed and then I fail. Sometimes I fail and then I succeed. But this blog is meant to be the admission of who I really am. My talents and my flaws. My likes and my dislikes. My joys and my sorrows. And each day, if I get around to it (again one of those things that's on my list leading to perfection) I'm going to admit one thing about myself. Brace yourself because you might just be shocked at some of the things you'll read like, I'LL ADMIT IT: I've burned macaroni and cheese before. Ha, just kidding that's not shocking necessarily, just sad. But truly, I'm going to admit things because they will help me reach my ultimate goal: to recognize who I am and love me just the way I am; to recognize who I am and adjust those things that I don't like instead of pretending it's not really me; and to let you all know that (hopefully I'm not alone in these things) there is someone out there that struggles with, feels about, hopes for, secretly loves the same things you do.

I feel the same way! I'm constantly wondering whether my pendulum is swinging too far to one side or the other. I'm glad to have company in this!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the insights, Heather. I think this is a great idea. I need to come to know myself better as well and be able to frankly admit the good as well as the bad. And admitting the bad parts makes me recognize that those things are there (as opposed to just glossing over them, or, as you said, thinking that it's not me, that I'm not really that way, when actually I am) and that is the first step in making real change and real progress. I look forward to reading!
