Life has changed, and I choose to grow from it.

[SH_]

SH, I'm glad that you were able to have a normal conversation with your W. Hopefully, it's the beginning of a trend.

You remain in a very introspective frame of mind lately. I think that it is good to look within ourselves, but I urge you not to lose sight of the joy to be found in your days. I'm not seeing much said about doing things that you enjoy these days, or that you have discovered any new people or activities. Perhaps you are the yin to my yang when it comes to GAL? I can stand some slowing down, and perhaps you should get out there and try to enjoy yourself a little more? I wouldn't bother you on this if I heard some joy in your post, but if it's there, I'm not seeing it very well.

Go find something fun to do, my friend. Go for a walk in a park, get outside, go dancing, whatever tickles your fancy...

Touche my dear friend....

I have been trapped in my head so to speak.....

I felt empty with my GAL activities over the summer, almost as if it was just a show to the world that I was okay or something....
I have slowed it down as something was not...well not sure what it was not.

I am actually in a more calm and place of joy of late, but there is a dark shadow that I am trying to head off...

But, your point is spot on...
I know it...
My d18 is hitting me up on it regularly....
A new friend here in the community has poked me with same thoughts....
He!! I just challenged a DB brother to share a post of joy....

I guess I am looking quite the hypocrite here...

Odd though, I do feel calm, at peace, I smile more, my time with D6 is pure joy and bliss, people that I interact with have taken notice and mentioned to me how well I am of late.....Many of these folks have no idea of what I am going through.
But something is missing....
Can't quite put my finger on it....

Yes, I must get out and go through the initial strain and pain of meeting new people and trying new things....

Phoebe, you are absolutely correct.
