I'm often too much in my head, which prevents me from appreciating the moment, especially the people in the moment. I isolated myself yesterday. Silence and alone time are valuable, but for me they need to be balanced with contact from others.

I was projecting my bad feelings for myself towards someone who is my biggest support, perhaps because they are so unconditional. Then I felt badly for doing this. But as I'm learning to own and change my behaviour, I'm also learning that just worrying or feeling bad does not do anything constructive, so this is something to let go of, and move towards what I DO want in my life, which is more compassion. I'm going to read more from other bloggers on this site now. Thanks for being there.
