last hurrahs

I was at a going-away party once and the person I was with didn't want to stay long. "Why stay to say goodbye for an extra hour, they are still leaving and you will probably never see them again. That extra hour won't matter" he said. I was upset. They were harsh words and insensitive but very likely to be proven true. We left.

I've learned that staying that extra hour never does really matter or help me really. Once I know I should leave, I should just say good bye and just leave. The party will go on and that friend that went away will go on.  It's not very hard. Just Leave.

Life Coach and Beyond

A slightly far removed friend offered me probono life coaching for 6 months... As long as she can record it all for her license program. No problem! There are worse things out there of me. Believe you me.

My saboteur, the comfortable Appreciativo, with a capital "A".  It says "I am OK here, now." Even if things got worse or better I can be in the OK place almost always. Well, I mean there are exceptions to all rules, but for the most part I can always be "OK". This can be a good thing, my Appreciativo saboteur, BUT it can also keep me in places that may or not be the best thing for me. Or it may keep me from taking a chance, leaving comfort, to try something new.  Because lets face it, whats the worst that can happen if i leap into unknowns more often than not.
