Jason went home today to New York. Yes I said home, that is where he considers home. Kevin went home to Fort Wayne the same for him. I doubt he will ever be back to indy area.
Yesterday Kevin (my friend) told me he did not want to think about moving out of state.
I have learned a lot about who I am over the last 10 years by the path I have taken in life. I learned that the drugs from my past was to hide from my past.
When I was about 16 I started having seizures, grand-mals, Then I learned and took care of the bad memories from my childhood, I stopped having seizures. I have not had a seizures in over 6 years and I haven't been on medication for 5.5 years. Before sixteen I woke up many times with my tongue bitten up and sore muscles so my mom and I often wonder how many I had before my parents actually witness one.
With quite bit of counseling I learned what the underlying problem was and I found the desire to lead a different life is the result of being a whole person. But today at work I thought about my weight I wonder what it is I am hiding from by being overweight. I wonder for a lot of different reasons......I wonder if extra weight lately is because I have been down lately. Could it be?
What am I afraid of? What am I hiding from in my weight? What am I willing to do to lose the weight?
As far as knowing how to lose the weight I know how? So am I going to keep my membership at the Y or what is the deal?
i know I never learn anything with 2x4 being hit up side my head, so I am sure this will be one of them. :)
Hey Joyce...what you have written above speaks volumes to me. Being overweight myself, I have been trying to figure out what I am hiding behind. I have learned that an abusive childhood stays with you into adulthood. I am working on speaking to the scared little girl living deep down, trying to reassure her she is safe now. Building her trust is not an easy task. If you get the chance, read a book titled "Losing your pounds of pain", written by Doreen Virtue. While I do not read her books that she writes today, she wrote this book many years ago. I hope you find it as interesting as I did. Let me know....Emily
