Thought I Was Piecing, Now I'm Detaching 4

[25yearsmlc]

Sounds great. Just curious, how do you know your w is enjoying her break?

Anyhow, I just posted to Crimson about GAL.

I think IF there is a "secret" to getting thru this ordeal, it's to GAL>

helps detaching b/c it reduces the obsessing and anxieties

helps your PMA, b/c we have enough social awareness to know not to cry when we meet new people....seems awkward, you know?

Meeting new people and or

doing new activities keeps us stimulated in a good way that does NOT remind of us of "old times with x"

and

GAL with new people helps us keep the changes and progress we made.

WE backslide less b/c the new people in our lives have good expectations of us and we tend to live up to (or stoop down to) what is expected of us.

We see ourselves thru the new friend's eyes and we are NOT lacking...

So yeah, I say GAL.

With kids, and without.

Doing activities with old friends is comforting at first and makes sense.

But you can have an old friend do a new thing with you too...

and you can have, indeed you MUST have some new folks in your life who know you in an EE way (or something authentic like Al Anon, etc)

and connect with you and see your inherent value and unique traits.

So have fun with the kids and plan on some GAL this week...that's right...THIS COMING WEEK.

we all wanna know your next open mic, etc.

Why not try some stand up comedy? Buy Judy Carter's book on it. She's the guru of getting funny material that is YOURS, in the right format for delivery.

I am counting on this PON!
