i moved to germany a year ago and between the move and the job and the insane life changes, i seem to have lost my way. i am riding the crazy train and it is time to get off. i was fortunate to get two really good pieces of advice in the last few days.
1) Frances: It is what it is so you have to deal with it and let the rest go
2) Sasha: you need to learn to emotionally check out
you're too dramatic
:)
except you're like a method actor
you live that shit
james dean died in a car crash too
cept yours is more like an epic freight train wreck
that ruptures underground gas lines and has ensuing explosions
Sasha summed it up exactly what i DON'T want to be while Francis gave me direction. so today i am starting my "lifestyle change." it is time to exorcise the drama and minimize the explosions.

every day for the next 30 days (because that is a GIANT commitment) i am going to embrace the wonderful things in my life. enjoy the good moments, let the bad ones pass, and just take it one day at a time. if i can't say something nice, i am NOT going to say bless her heart. instead i am going make-up something nice and i am going to post it here to keep me honest. and when it is hard i am going to remind myself that tomorrow i get to wake up and be awesome.
Agree with Sasha about the dramatic thing. ;) Drama creates drama, and it sounds like you're finally tired of the drama and realize its negative effects on your life. Try confronting challenges/negative situations with peaceful acceptance. Start with the traffic jams. :) You are now forced to be with only yourself and your thoughts - to spend some quality time with yourself. Use it to your advantage by thinking about your life in a progressive way.
