Corri,

Quote:
What was the motivating factor for both of you saying what you said, that I highlighted in bold, above? Seriously.

Both of you are pressed for time, have gone so far to express that... yet, you both have stated a willingness to add even more to your plate... because:

a) It is something you really want to do, and you'll make it fit, for you are that motivated;

or

b) You are somehow feeling bad/guilty for me, you are mildly interested, and to keep me 'happy' on some level, you will try to participate, extending yourself beyond an already full plate.

or

c) ____ fill in your own answer____.


Me saying "I'll be happy to join in" means "I'll be happy to join in."

This is something I want to do, for a variety of reasons. One, the guy who had been mentoring me for ahwile, blackfoot, is just too busy himself to take on a project as demanding as me. Two, I think I do have an odd mix of attractive and very unattractive qualities that I would like to balance more on the side of attractive. Three, I bring a unique perspective to any discussion. Four, my marriage, while MUCH better over the last two years could stand for some serious improvement, 50% of which has to do with me. Five, I need something to break my W and I out of our current Sargasso Sea, and I've found that talking about my situation and looking for specific solutions helps me not only with providing me things to do, it helps with my PMA when I am busy. Six, nothing is more important to me than a healthy marriage, because it is good for my W, gives me the foundation to be as good a father as possible, and helps me pursue my PURPOSE with more vigor.
