On the Path of Life

I've been thinking about this blog on and off all week long. Trying to decipher what I want from it, trying to make up my mind regarding which part of my life to share and which to keep to myself. No conclusions so far, so I think I'll just take things as they come. Let this be a life blog.

The big fact about me is that I am very reluctant to have one thing, one activity, one point of focus, basically one of anything take over my life and define me. I am also very reluctant to place myself in boxes, and to have that placing determine me and my life. That's why I try to avoid saying things such as "all my life, I have had a problem with X" or "I suffer from Y." This is where the dificulty with writing a proper introduction might be stemming from. After all, an intro requires us to state such things.

At this point, I'm seeing my life as a journey of discovery. I also feel that I'm finally on the rebound from the up-and-down of the past 2-3 years, that I am once again becoming the me that I once was and knew. The me I was happy with. Each day, I realize and notice new things - about myself, about my outlook, about my attitude and approach.
Just a few months ago, I was feeling lost and miserable, and struggled with believing that "things would sort themselves out." Today, I am still on the search for the right answer and the solution The big difference is that I am enjoying the journey and willing to take my time with it. And I feel that I'm on the right path. I am looking forward to where the road of life will take me, and I will work hard to become a better and healthier person along the way.

hi chickie

things have been so busy but i am emailing you tonight.

i am glad you started a new blog. i missed reading your old one.

i like that you aren't sectioning your blog into one box. so much of life spills over into all facets. your goals for this blog sound very similar to mine.
