This Too Shall Pass
Nov. 3rd, 2004 06:21 pmResilience is a beautiful thing, as are all my friends, present and distant, physical and internet, old and new.
Following the example of
bigreddee and
dizzibear (thanks, guys!), I think I'm mostly done with being distraught. Still unhappy, but moving on. I saved up some anger in a bottle on the shelf for later use, should I need it. I'm feeling rededicated to figuring out the red-blue divide and how to drag people across it.
Today was a beautiful cloudless day, with bright sun and clear blue skies. I took a walk to stretch my legs and watch prarie dogs this afternoon.
I got an amazing amount of work done today. All but one of the turn 2 proposals are coded, and I even got the one with complicated enactment dynamics finished, though I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
Monkey scored disc 3 of Twelve Kingdoms, which we've been enjoying quiet a bit recently, from the library.
Now I'm heading out to grab dinner and go hang with the Bakers at Wednesday Gathering for a bit.

Funny thing about divides - sometimes they are dark and messy and it's just so much easier to stay up on respective "high places" with "us" and huck rhetoric at "them" hoping to either knock the other off their place or maybe fill the divide with so much crap that we can use it as a bridge to ... Calming down... the pace of that just got faster and faster in my head...
Thanks for being willing to continue going to potentially difficult "places." It speaks of true strength to knowingly risk conflict to attempt to build relationship.
So, Yays.
