Loving, Listening, and Letting Go..

[aeolianchaos]

There are so many similiarities with many waw's it's scary and a bit comical. I know we all hear it a lot on here-GAL, drop the rope,etc. but keep
asking yourself what can I do for myself today, just today to
make me feel good/better?

Thanks for dropping in, D1. I appreciate what you said here.

I am working on this more and more - when W and I first met, I was a first year Grad student machine. Up at 6am, at school by 7 and generally there until about 10:30 or 11 each night.

Was lifting some serious weight at the time, too.. fair to say I was in above avg. shape.

I am saying this because I think about how at some point I started avoiding all these things - avoiding busting my a$$ for things I wanted, avoided hanging out with my friends, avoiding doing much. Yet I didn't find myself happier.. if anything, life got more and more unfulfilling. So why do I let the fact that my WAW is gone prevent me from pursuing some of that stuff now?

I don't want to overcompensate and become a workaholic - burnout [censored]. But certainly I'm wise enough to be able to seek balance in the process at this point. I hope!
