How about that!!! ... you managed to sum up all my threads in the last two years of my sitch in a line and a half! ... but very nicely put so I can keep pounding into this dense shell of mine.
and thank Slowly for the words of encouragement ... Getting back to basics is all about the bigger picture as PnB reminded me ... Making today a better day than yesterday. ... and it struck me that I can't do this to the best of my ability if I'm still stuck on wanting to be with the CAW of "yesterday". Still have to figure out exactly what my goals of the present are yet to be. Will work on that over the course of my days off.
Bets: Thanks for the warm greeting, but its gonna be difficult to keep up with all ya folk over the next few weeks ... but long term I don't see myself going away. Feeling stuck is a common pitfall of the process. One wise DBer explained the process to me as a series of plateaus. Often when we are the level part, we feel like were stuck in the same place, but actually we are in the process of tranversing them without any landmarks so we can tell. Like Columbus crossing the ocean ... no way of telling if there is land ahead. You just have to trust you are getting somewhere ... but boy, this journey has some vast oceans to span and some Great Plains to cross ...
