Five Days, Five Questions - Day One
A dear friend of mine presented me with five questions. If I may say, they are quite good questions and while I normally reserve my journal for my own happs, she knows me well enough that the content is quite relevant and interesting. So.....here you go.
1) How do you stop avoiding your self?
I really don't know what the intent of this question (or any of them for that mater) is but I think that I should interpret it to be asking me about avoidance of whatever is on my mind (self).
Hmph
Well I am to first to admit that I am pensive. In fact, that is the first thing my friends would say about me is that I am pensive and the wheels are always turning. I can't help it, it's just me and how I am. To that end, I really can't avoid my issues. I can't avoid George or the things on my mind and there is no getting around it.
This is not to say that I don't try though
When things become "regular" or "routine" I lose touch with myself and the things that are important to me. Seems like I just start doing all the wrong things when it comes to taking care of myself. I sometimes wish in those days that I had somebody to save me from myself. Somebody to make me better. But I don't. I only have myself. I do long for the day that I have somebody that just makes me better and keeps me on track.
I think I am my own worst enemy because I can't avoid myself for long. It is that pensiveness that brings me back to center. There is no avoiding. And you know when I stop and think about it, I don't think I enjoy life as much when I am in that avoidance mode. I like who I am for the most part - don't get me wrong, if I could re-invent myself, there are things I would change. Plenty. It would be nice to be that other guy sometimes.
But I think that is a question for another day.

lookin forward to the next 4.
Well, you may have gathered by now that I'm a man who likes a little... introspection.
Just make sure you find the time, George!
what a tease... not all 5 in one day?!? *hmpfh*
well if you answer the other 4 as well as the first one then they will be well worth the wait my friend.
