I realize, all the more these days, that regardless of all my flaws, and my eccentricities, and areas needing improvement, and own particular view of the world (to name a few) that, if given the option, I would *still* choose to be me rather than anyone else...

I don't understand the expression "don't take it personally"...how can that make any sense?...one's life is Very Personal and what happens during it is all part of the whole...I suspect it is a phrase which has been coined, and become popular, as a way for people to not take responsibility for actions which have an effect on others....(this is not some cryptic statement about someone hurting my feelings....it's related to some damage done to my car)

I'm proud of myself for sticking to my goal of doing what I say I will do...it would be my preference to interact with people who did the same...

I am Not proud of myself when I ignore my intuition...I have no one to blame but myself for whatever discomfort I experience...

while I have made progress, I still struggle with affording myself the same kindnesses that I give others....

and...

I wonder if this will finally be the week of CAKE...and yes, that matters as well....
