Problem is that I don't have the answer...at least I don't have an answer I can give myself. Seriously, if I don't have the answers about what I want...then who does? I think your journal idea is interesting...I've always written, I have a few from years ago (some I've lost) - these are more of a diary type thing, but I might go thru and see if anything sticks out. Interesting..very interesting. ~K I’m in the “ask questions” phase. Problem is that I don’t have the answer…at least I don’t have an answer I can give myself.

It is such a crucial lesson to learn - and I'm still trying to hammer it into my brain - that we are not our pasts. Mistakes may be made but we don't need to berate ourselves for them and let them drag us down. I need to look at them more as learning experiences. Thanks for your reminder. oh my gosh, I do this way too much:

I apparantly kept repeating "if money wasn't an issue and I could do anything, I'd be a doctor." I had no idea I had been repeating this for years until someone pointed it out to me and told me if I really wanted this, I could make it happen. I was blown away and almost embarrassed that I hadn't been listening to myself. funny thing is, it took someone else pointing this out to me.

I'm starting when I go away for my mini-vacation. My laptop in tow with a journal in hand, I think it's time to figure out what makes ole' Cynthia tick! :) 26 will be when I’ll devote more time to myself to figure this out.

I'm never sure how I'm doing. All the introspection in the world doesn't seem to bring me answers. It’s a work in progress. I’m never sure how I’m doing.
