			That I am under no obligation to fill every pause, silence or gap, I do not have to appoint myself entertainer, soother, diplomat and conversational tour guide all the time and its quite alright to let others fill those pauses and put a little effort in and that does not make me a bad person. PS: This is a real time person to person observation not relating to interactions here on the Planet...just thought I should clarify !

			Today I learned, after 9 years of dating, that my partner does not care for mushrooms on his pizza nor is he a fan of chocolate cake. Who knew??

			But we haven't been living together for 9 years, only dating. We have been living together for 7.5 or so.

			Happiness is about a delicate balance of giving and taking, independence and interdependence, holding on and letting go. It doesn't come solely from within oneself, even though the foundation of true happiness must commence from within. We can pretend all day long that we don't need others and don't care what other people think, but the truth is we all need people in our lives who validate us. We must make sure to seek validation from the right people, though...our loved ones, those we know on a personal, deep level...those who have our best interests at heart. And we must provide the same to them in return. |

			I have learned no matter how much you put in it won't always make a difference.... That it's okay to say no once in a while.... Text can be easily misread.... That giving a part of me to someone doesn't give them the right to own every part of me... That I am okay being me & if that isn't enough then they're not enough for me... That strength doesn't come from muscles it comes from the mind... If your mind is weak all of you is....

			This last few months, I have been learning that there are more ways to be than I ever dreamt of, and that education is helping me understand myself better, and feel more comfortable in my own skin and amongst other humans. This is wonderful.

			I learned the most important lesson you could learn.  You do you first.   Everyone needs something but you cannot be everything to everyone when you are not running on a full tank. I am sick yet people still look to me for help. I have nothing to give them because all my energies are focused on me. I kind of like it that way.
