This blog is ending...(see the post below this one)

Biting off more than you can chew...

Has this ever happened to you?....Well, it certainly has been that way for me. Because I have loved to write, I found myself creating 14 different blogs since 2007, each on different subjects. I can not keep up with them...it has overwhelmed me, and so I find myself not posting to any of them for lengths at a time. So....the best solution for me, is that I have to end some of the blogs. It has been a hard decision on which ones to end, also. SORRY, BUT THIS BLOG I AM ENDING... The following links are to my most favorite and fun blogs, the 5 that I am still keeping... http://thewritingsofcj.blogspot.com/... http://thelightsideoflifeprosebycj.blogspot.com/ ... http://upsy-downsysblog.blogspot.com/ ... http://beautyofstgeorge.blogspot.com/ ... http://csblogmydays.blogspot.com/ ...

Frustration with myself

I fall into these little ruts of doing or saying things that I really don't like myself for...and it really bothers me, not to mention that it gets me into trouble, sometimes. When it happens repeatedly, I wonder why I allow myself to fall into these ruts. It seems plain enough to me that if there is something that frustrates me about myself, then just plain CHANGE....simple as that. But it takes REALLY wanting to change, for the change to take place...it is not that easy...but it is do-able. At least I need to congratulate myself for recognizing that I do these things that I don't feel good about. That seems to be a plus factor....so feel good about THAT !!! Next....I need to have a plan on how I am going to change. I made a list of WHAT I want to change, HOW I will accomplish it...which mainly consists of very conscientiously being aware of what I say or do. By the way, that can be a little difficult, as I have a habit of just blurting out stuff...not good. But hey, don't let it being hard to do, be discouraging. In the end....I find it does work...and I am making progress....and I am proud of myself. And....I am getting into less trouble, which is a very good thing, indeed !!!

Fear

There is real truth in the comment that to overcome our fear, we need to face it. My fear of cancer was just like that. The fear just about did me in, but I could see that I did not have many choices, so I faced the fear, did what I had to do, and found out that I was a lot stronger than I thought I was. The spiritual help I received was the element that gave me the courage and strength to go through it all.
