A new chapter will open up for you if you are patient and allow life's energy to let it happen....this is because you have lots of talent AND great interpersonal skills. The latter means that people will seek you out to do something for/with them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-1160799727358646022006-10-13T21:22:00.000-07:002006-10-13T21:22:00.000-07:00Yes...shifting. Its so necessary for me, even tho...Yes...shifting. Its so necessary for me, even though I kick and scream at the thought. I recently completed a little art assignment that I volunteered to do, then felt completely stressed out by my inability to do whatever it was I felt was expected of me. Later I realized that they truly wanted whatever it was I wanted to do. That was hard to get my head around, I think I tend to work hard to let no one down. Anyway, in the end, the work I turned over felt very me and yet it stretched me too. I think it was exactly what I needed at the time.<BR/><BR/>Congrats on the bookclub. Count me in, I needed an excuse to start a new read. xoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-1160788985758174562006-10-13T18:23:00.000-07:002006-10-13T18:23:00.000-07:00Jumping into the unknown?

I wish I could shift more easily, go with the flow...but the known is so comforting that its so hard to let go of.<BR/>Though I feel your drawing class- I was terrified sick thinking about taking drawing class. For god sake, I'm a photo kid for a reason. I never got good. But I really really enjoyed it. And it was a lot easier for me to do the repetitive, mudane tasks than the good kids...I actually enjoyed drawing small circles for 3 hours. A fresh view is some much fun. I just have to remember that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-1160782128859949232006-10-13T16:28:00.000-07:002006-10-13T16:28:00.000-07:00yes,shifting is sucha scary thing.so difficult to ...yes,<BR/>shifting is <BR/>such<BR/>a scary thing.<BR/>so difficult <BR/>to make that<BR/>initial shift<BR/>and then you just<BR/>go go go...<BR/>know what <BR/>you mean...<BR/>but i feal like<BR/>i am <BR/>still stuck <BR/>in 1st gear.bughearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01155984346674609786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-1160774815860164602006-10-13T14:26:00.000-07:002006-10-13T14:26:00.000-07:00hi lisa, shifting is good...it forces you to make ...hi lisa, shifting is good...it forces you to make desicions.
