The past 2 weeks have been a bit of a whirl wind of craziness. I feel like I have even let my practice go a bit and I don’t like that.
This morning I took J to the airport for his trip to NTC(Army training) in California. He will be there for about 2 months. Which sucks cause I hate being alone.
I have noticed some strange characteristics of me and other only children lately. Thought that I might share in cause you are one, married to one, or have one as a child. These could only be about me but I would venture to say not.
1. I hate being alone. When I was little I couldn’t go to daycare. I didn’t like the other kids mainly and they were always so loud. In the 2nd grade I started walking home from school because I hated it so much. Mind you the school was RIGHT across the street but still I would rather have been at home.
2. I’m super selfish and don’t like to share anything. J and I have separate laptops, bank accounts, cars, hell we even have to fridges. I’m working on this one. Sometimes its hard to put others thoughts or feelings ahead of my own. I think that’s why I have such a wonderful person to share my life with though. He’s helping me to learn how to do this and pointing out the times that I don’t.
3. I don’t have a lot of empathy for others. I think that I first cried from a friend being upset 2 years ago. I never use to cry at movies(I do now). I know that Yoga has truly helped me with this part.
4. I still throw fits. I’m 31 years old and I don’t like it when I don’t get my way. Which isn’t very attractive in a person, teacher, friend, and especially a spouse. Not like kicking and screaming kids in Wal-Mart but I pout and am not happy.
5. I don’t trust anyone. Not even myself. I don’t know if this is cause of my issues with most people who have come into my life or if it’s just the way that I am.
Most of these things get better over the years. I know that I’m not the same person that I was when I was in my 20’s for damn sure. These things will get better the older I get.
