But not long ago I committed myself to move on and make a few changes. I had tried that before through efforts to changing my personality but failed. I now realize that it does not have to be that way. One does not have to change altogether. This happened during one of my rapid mood changes experiences. I kept telling myself that I should not be controlled by the mood and think what is right and just do it even though it may seam difficult going against what my mood dictated me. We all know at the back of our mind what is the right thing to do and our habits sometimes just prevent us from doing so. And they tend to push us towards our comfortable past reactions we are familiar with. What frightened me every time I wanted to do different thing (that I felt was the right thing to do) was that I did not know what the outcome would be or how I would feel afterwards. I left that feeling away and now I am getting used to the new situation. I am feeling more comfortable with the new situation. At the moment I am working on repairing my relationships. I always resisted to take the post as a say father etc. because I thought they were forced upon me by the written law of society and I hated that feeling. I used to go against such things that gave me this feeling. Now I feel I have to crack the egg shell I lived in for so long and come to the open and accept all the consequences. Life is so short and I do not want to live it inside anymore.Radinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07626776963576603169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10869745.post-1117488235432846582005-05-30T16:23:00.000-05:002005-05-30T16:23:00.000-05:00I think the reluctance to make changes is not nece...I think the reluctance to make changes is not necessarily pathological. Years ago I spent many days and nights with only my young daughter as my companion. (Yes, I was married but my husband at that time was married to his job.) Anyway, I did EVERYTHING with this little one. Eventually, the day came that she was ready for pre-school. I dropped her off looking forward to a day of shopping and finally running errands with some freedom. I cannot begin to tell you how strange I felt walking around a mall all by myself. Eating lunch at the food court was horrible. I thought everyone was looking at me. I mean I really did! I realized that this was stupid, but the feeling was still there. I think sometimes we are such creatures of habit that we avoid change just for that reason.Taborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15257045780724471840noreply@blogger.com
