Entries of Growth

As I write these entries i realize that they are more for me than for anybody. I don't get to see who reads them so i have no idea if any of what I write impacts anyone. at the end of the day I got to say what i wanted but more important i get to review my life. I think I have written a couple times through out my blog therapy sessions about my curiosity in who reads what I write; I am still curios but like  said all of this is really for me. it's an outlet and learning scale. As a writer deep down it would be nice to know if my words and gut spilling touched anyone but part of being unknown is having that thin veil  between writer and reader
  It's hard for me to throw stones at people that peep and peek at my entries without leaving a comment or signing my guest book only because I have done the same. I have scooped on music and photos and inspirationals and never left my footprint. All I know is that one day when I find my way out of my present situation, all the doom and gloom and frustraion I wrote about will be my barometer of growth.

Swallowing an Elephant

You know that joke/riddle How do you eat an elephant? A-One bite at a time. For most that seems to be the most logical.

I am not so blessed to be able to unhinge my jaw and swallow large objects.    My capacity to learn and adapt to familiar things that need to be dusted off and new ways takes more than a day or two. I know the elephant swallowers are in high demand and get cut higher respect but I feel the nibblers are just as worthy. Patience is a skill that has been slacking both in the people who want to try to make a nibbler into a swallower and those who are observing and comparing; even the nibbler wanting to be perfect...

Breathing

When someone asks me how I am I usually respond with okay which means nothing bad or good is going on. When things aren’t so okay I reply with “I’m barely breathing” which means I’m highly stressed out over something. When I listen to meditation videos they always start out with deep breathing, at first, I thought it was kind of silly to concentrate so much on breathing. I also started to notice my breathing when I was stressed out or intensely involved in something. I have two destructive breathing patterns that take place, I either over breath or shallow breathe; sometimes I even subconsciously hold my breath. None of the three poor breathing methods make a happy functioning body. It’s funny to have to learn how to breath properly because it’s something we do automatically.    With some unknown allergies or on and off sinus issues I already face upper repertory struggles at times. When I over breath due to some hidden or not so hidden stress I notice changes in my bod...
