abbadabba's Journal, 21 Nov 10

Day 82
Some small clarification: Last Saturday I met a great guy and talked, but it was not a date so I may not ever see him again. I met him at a conference and we ended up at dinner together with a group, but then split off for dessert just the two of us - it was fun. Then the conference was over and we went our separate ways. What I got was a great reminder that what I am looking for is someone like him in a lot of ways, and that those ways are obvious now but were subconscious prior to this. Similar goals, similar points of view, similar backgrounds, similar intellects - all very important.

So, I am on my life journey on a more defined path. More motivation for taking care of myself through diet/eating habits and exercise, more understanding that what I need in my life is both out there and clearly recognizable.

I am re-establishing trust with the Universe. My inner child is learning that there IS an inner Mother who will take care of me. And my brief intellectual encounter over last Saturday (wow, has it been a week?) has reminded me that there are types of people who not only sustain me but nurture me, teach me, give to me, exchange with me.

Working on centering myself.

Hope you all are having a great weekend!

And you are doing such a great job of it. Wow what a great journal and a great understanding of what you want for yourself. Be proud girl you are doing awesome. It is so important to have someone in our lives that we can click with in all the important ways.

Good for you. A valuable lesson in life I've learned is to let no one have 'control' over your own thoughts and decisions. Perhaps this is why I also am alone. Yet my family ignores me, and I was sort of pissed about it the past few days - and you know what? I don't need any of them. There is so much disrespect and it's not like I have a big ego and need everyone to treat me well, but they just ignore me like I don't exist - my younger sister has actually turned totally evil around me - like a monster witch - and I don't care to be in her company anymore because her husband doesn't like me. Everyone in my family is busy, so to them I don't matter. It will give me the courage to go on and move if I get published in the next few years. I am planning on maybe Texas or Hawaii, it just depends on my financial circumstances. The right people will come into your life. Counselors told me I am too isolated from others - but I don't feel that way. At this stage in life I don't need a girlfriend relationship that is going to go nowhere, just as you don't need to just be with a guy in between real relationships just to be with someone. Many people settle and aren't happy - and I am seeing a lot of it. Hope you have a good week ahead... :)

What a nice journal entry abba, it's good to hear you so upbeat. I sure hope that you got that guy's telephone number, people like that only come around rarely. You have a good weekend too!
