When there is a long time issue between two people it is very interesting to watch it ebb and flow. Just when I am feeling better about the relationship, more secure and see a good direction being taken, that old issue comes and shoves me off the cliff. I don't want to see it coming so I focus on the positive. Well, that is becoming old. Since I am the one who feels that there is an issue, I guess it is up to me to take a different direction. It is time that I stop looking at the issue at all and start focusing on what I am able to do to help mySelf.
One more thing while I am here. My friend who says he supports my dreams and talents has never read my blog. I do not feel supported. It is more like I am an extra thought in his day. He would do all he could to try to convince me otherwise, however, if my blog is helping to ignite my passion for writing and you wish to do all you can to help me see my passion become more fruitful, then you would be reading the blog to give me feedback. Don't you think??
God grant me
Serenity to accept the things I cannot change
Courage to change the things I can, and
Wisdom to know the difference...
Paragraph 1: You & me both, kiddo!
ReplyDeleteParagraph 2: Dunno what to tell you other thanthis: if you've said it's impt & asked him to read it but he refuses to, maybe you should apply the lesson of Paragraph 1...
And I'm not religious, but the serenity prayer makes a lot of good sense. Sorta Taoistic...
I have to agree with David on all points. Keep up the writing and posting; I'll read it all and comment, too.
