Hey wii, fm, thanks for remembering me in the crowded streets of the DB forums.
I was out of town for a few days and just trying to catch up. I'm doing OK, sometimes great even. I miss my old life a lot but overall I'm coming to accept this one.
I stayed at a very ritzy place which reminded me of us how we used to go on vacations and how she could be here and take advantage of the free spa, golfing, horse back riding etc that was all paid for by the company that invited us. Seeing others who'd brought their spouses and even little childern it was just another reminder.
However, I was honored to be in the company of some of the most successful people in the tech industry (mostly CIOs and even some CEOs) . In fact, we had Jerry West come in and give a speech which was very moving and motivating. He said he's come to the conclusion there are just three types of people in this world:
Floaters: they float along life, even making changes and going to lengths to keep up with the rest. They associate success with money...most people fit this category.
Fleers: these people can't look at a challenge straight in the eye, at the slightest inconvenience they flee, looking for other options and usually spend a lot of time and energy just running away from the problems (guess who I was thinking of when he was talking about these types of people...I'll give you a hint, this isn't me)
Fighters: these people are risk takers, they do things that others don't, there aren't many of them and they truly are successful people but they don't associate success with money. They find a purpose in life, a passion for something and it's what they live for. (I used to be this, I became the floater over time)
Anyway, I haven't been writing much on purpose because like Geronimo I too feel I've run out of stuff to write about. Sure I'm thinking about my sitch, STBXW, our future etc non-stop but I'm just too lazy to write about them...or I guess I'm tired of it all and don't want to write about it anymore. I feel what I feel and it is what it is.
