what I'm learning

• i'm not feeling motivated to start doing homework again.
• it's ok to be "in process." no one expects me to have it together all the time.
• living in southern california means there are a few weeks a year where you are just going to sweat all the time. no one can remain "fresh feeling" when it's 105 degrees.
• how to be real. i think i've never really allowed myself to be real to people, sharing the good and the crap. i haven't believed people would accept me still. in fact people value me and my relationship with them more when i share my true self with them.
• unconditional love creates trust and more boldness to share myself.
• i need york peppermint patties regularly.
• i have good friends, and i have lots to learn from them.
• it's easy to fall into old habits and turn down opportunities to teach when asked! sometimes i need to just say yes to stretch myself.
• i can run a half marathon.
