wow...did i write this?
I am feeling good about today. This morning, Michael and I went to the church service at Unity and it was fun and wonderful. I can recall during the message, when the minister mentioned how sometimes people can get so caught up with the past and I do that a lot. I think I sometimes have a hard time with the realization that so much time has past and that life is very much different than say 1988 and not will it. I think I am waiting for some kind of major event happening and I am missing out on the many important events that are taking place now. Just yesterday for instance, I received a phone call from my mother who wants to have dinner with me sometime soon and this is someone with whom I have barely spoken. I see on television how parents and their children interact and I really wish that I could have had that. sometimes it is difficult for me to read old journal entries. My main thought is "wow...did I write this?" and I ask myself this not because I seriously doubt that I had written it, but the fact that at one point in my life that was happening and now it is now. I constantly tell myself that my life has undergone many scenes...scenes that I wish I could relive, but how can I posibly relive all of those scenes at once? So I take that into consideration and press the button, wait patently until the message reads walk, look both ways, and then proceed with caution. and that is how I manage to continue.
