Therapy and an innate desire to understand human behavior and
subconcious influences has led me down the path of constant
introspection. I thought that by understanding my own
motivations and shadow side, I'd be more able to fully accept and
understand others'. I thought that if I healed myself, I'd be in a
better place to help facilitate other peoples healing. But, am I losing
focus? How do I balance self-reflection without becoming self-absorbed?
I really want to give more. I want to put out more good energy.
I want to do something good for the people around me and my
community. Sometimes I'm so wrapped up
in my own head - its dizzying. I'm discouraged by my recent
sarcastic cynacism and nastiness. Am I trying to be cool or
something? It makes me feel bad. And sorry.

you ain't the only one ;-) I figure that it's sort of normal. As to the 'art' thingo, why not? Have to say though that I tried it a few years back while on.. umm, not sure what you call it where you are, we called it the "Bob Hawke scholarship" or 'the federal funds rural re-distribution scheme' ie, they collected it in Canberra, and I wandered around the countryside spending the pittance.(welfare). Have to say that it was a lot of fun, have many 'pictures in the attic', but none of them any good. Perhaps it just wasn't 'my thing'. Might try it again. At present am 'self employed', but am really only working for the Electricity Co .. and Gas Co, Insurance Co, Landlord, Telephone Co..etc. :-)
Thanks for the validation Wombat. You wandered the countryside making art????
Neeaat!
