if i hadn't run out of ice cream! :)

i think my answers to the big questions come from within, but it took me a long time to recognize it. that gut feeling or instinct that something was right or wrong for me to do, have, pursue, feel, etc. was always there, even if i didn't want to listen to it or take the guidance i was given. but by asking questions and seeking answers from my teachers, mentors, friends, books and experiences, i've been able to start looking for the answers from within.  i am learning that my journal is a great source of comfort and a tool to access this knowledge whenever i need it.

i worry that i may not be able to handle all the obligations i have to manage this semester. it's a bit weird because this confident part of myself knows that i'm going to be able to do it and that i will do it well. but there's this little nagging voice in the back of my head that's still worried about it!  i'm know it's just coming from an insecurity that needs some compassion and attention, but MAN, it's getting old...especially when i'm trying to gear up to do my best! so i'm just choosing to tune into the part of me that is planning and ready to meet this challenge head on with the intent to succeed. so far so good!
