here's what's tough

you've been going about something the wrong way.
there comes a time when you realize it.
you accept that you've been going about it the wrong way and accept what's went wrong.
you work through what you need to work through.
you then have a new understanding.
and you accept the new understanding.

it's at this point where i feel better. more joy seems to return and i get excited. i'm glad to be out of the thick of whatever it was but also excited because there's this new knowledge/wisdom/understanding i have.

being a very outward and verbally expressive person, i let others know of these new things. the tough part is when they don't understand how i am understanding. the toughness is compounded, too, when others are people i really love. and then, there is conflict. arghhhhh! i'd love to keep going on this idea, but time's in short supply today so i have to bounce.

cheers!
