Who Are You?

original post Tuesday, August 09, 2005

I have always been interested in people's stories. I'm a writer who is fascinated by psychology. I'm a client to my therapist and psychiatrist. I have learned a thing or two in the process about people. Why do they react the way they do? Whats going on in their minds?




What kind of a person are you?



I have been pursuing my interests, getting published, astronomy, painting, and most of all photography, which has become a fascinating hobby since I've gotten my digital camera.



I've been facing tough times recently. Problems at home as well as feeling like I'm nurturing everyone I know and not getting nurtured in return. I need a little nurturing, too. Just a little bit, not a lot. But some would be nice.



I'm the kind of person who needs to give. I feel compassion. I try to live Kindness. But sometimes I harden up and fall short. I'm just a girl. Can you blame me? But sometimes giving means being taken advantage of, and having to learn to let go.



I'm learning to understand my bewilderment at life. The state I'm in is a result of mistakes made. I can only do what I can to make things right. And that's what I am doing.



I plan to budget my money, maybe even take a budgeting class. I plan to pay my father off for everything I've ever borrowed. I will be published, and my artwork will be displayed. I will happily go to my job, knowing that my work in caregiving will benefit somebody. I'm tired of slacking, as I've been doing it for 33 years. Now is my time to get it together, all of it.



I'm writing this to be held accountable. If you know me, please understand me. I'm only doing the best I can.
