| oddly happy right now.
accepting that i'm weird does amazing things.
| | |
| so much stress, and it's not related to my rotation/school or work. it's being at home.
chaos. i can't handle this. i need to move out.  | | |
| It's been a long time since I've been this ashamed of myself. I think it's because for a bit, I stopped really caring and just went iwth it. But i'm glad there was something to at least put me in check before i was too far gone...
I need to relax, breathe, and think critically. I can't always enter panic mode right away, because then I just react. | | |
| To say that I'm halfway there would mean that I know where I'm going... That's not a claim I'm ever willing to make. | | |
| Patience and humility. These things I need to work on. Spent some time in Philly (alone and/or living with Ab or Steph & Stephen) and my attitude went unchecked. Or if i was challenged, I stubbornly stomped back and ranted to anyone who would listen about the person who dare offer criticism.
I've gotten better at arguing but no better at being patient and kind. I need to rediscover my pureness (once it's gone, is it gone?), my faith, and my patience. I would like to reacquaint myself with the reserved person I am at the core, and stop using my bitter (very, very bitter) words to rebuke even the best-intentioned criticism. I would like to stop reacting to things and be patient enough to allow myself time to think when i'm being confronted with difficult people or situations, or even benign situations that I snap at before I even realize that everyone is in agreement.
I need to trust that these 9 months are really an attitude boot-camp, and that this is something I need. Perhaps I'll gain some humility and grace...
I want to learn another way to react to people than to dismiss their ideas and snap. I'm hoping that's something I can learn on self-study.
