At times I feel like I'm making some progress in my emotional well being but it seems that in the past, my emotional state was pretty much filled with many peaks and the valleys were few and far between...and weren't very deep. Now, it seems the peaks are few and far between and are not reaching quite as high. I'm getting lost in the depths of the valleys and it's a struggle to keep focused on where and what I want to achieve.
IC, You are more on track than you realize. Trying to keep up with the peaks of the past will only send you into the valley ( just read the stories on the MLC board for evidence of this). You're learning to give those old peaks a friendly wave, as you move forward on a new path fueled by your inner spirit and by connection with others. It's all about connection...to yourself, to a higher power, to your loved ones. You have already done some shaking up in this regard, and have a fine set of priorities.
BTW, I think it was really cool what you did for that kid, minus the drama element. My only fault with you is that you need to bring Miss IC more into your world as you figure things out. She is very ready to stay on that path with you, and she certainly brightens it up!
