Out with the old...

IN WITH THE NEW? I've done some serious cleaning. I put elbow grease into it. So, after I'm done, shouldn't there be a sparkling reward to show me the purpose of my effort? Well it's still a little muddy under there and I found dust in hidden spaces. Obviously I have more cleaning to do.

I learned something about myself today. I'm just as strong as I used to pretend I was. It took a moment of vulnerability to see that. But I'm happy to say I chose a moment of weakness. Now I understand what it must have been like to be on the other end of my dominance. I apologize to anyone I didn't take time to empathize.

Which brings me to my first philosophical achievement... To be understood is to be fulfilled. I don't think anyone in my life today understands me too well. So, obviously... I'm around the wrong people. Not that they are BAD people... but they don't fulfill me. And I also learned that in effort to understand the WRONG people... I lost some of myself.
