Up late just thinking...

Lately I’ve been getting pretty excited about my life. And that in itself is exciting. I have new friends, am exploring new places, am going to a new college, have new classes… I’ve been very independent.

Like tonight for instance. I was tromping around my old neighborhood just to go and see people, on a whim. Hung out with my old roommate for a bit. Petted some good dogs.

But as I lay in bed just now, in so much pain, I thought about my day a little harder. I rode the bus several times. I walked for probably a good hour today. I did yoga. These things add up. I don’t want to acknowledge it, but they do. And I like my new philosophy of “so be it”. But then there are the nights… and the pain.

So maybe you are thinking, well stop doing it. Or maybe you are thinking, you always do things to an extreme, find a middle ground. Well look, it’s easier said than done.

  1. You're like me...I wish I could find a middle ground in so many thing, but no...I sew aprons like crazy, then I write a novel, then I clean my house, and then I read...

    But I don't think you should stop. I think that's an important part of your life. But as in everything I do hope that you can be happy and as pain free as possible!
