Okay, time to see where they lead:

Observation : downing the shot at Cantina de mi Amigo
Feelings associated with said observation:
  • regret at the percieved disappointment in my friend
  • sadness that he wasn't able to share this awesome concoction with others (it was quite good)
  • diappointment that I hadn't heard his indication that it was a "sip and pass" situation
  • embarrasment that I had repayed his generocity with what I judged to be rudeness
Needs associated with above feelings:
  • Regret:  I need to contribute to the lives of my friends.
  • Sadness:  I want the sense of community a shared celebration brings.
  • Disappointment:  I need to hear my friends, and understand them when they communicate.
  • Embarrasment:  I want to show my appreciation for the generous natures of mis amigos.

Observation: missing the music concert of a lifetime with the one I Love
  • Disappointed that I was unable to explain my reasoning for not wanting to go in a way my Love would understand
  • Remorseful that I missed such a (by her and other's judgements) wonderful experience
  • Sad that I was unable to let go of my stubborness in the moment.
Needs associated with above feelings:
  • Disappointment:  I need to make myself understood to those I love.
  • Remorse:  I love the closeness that such adventures create between my Love and I.
  • Sadness:  I need to have easy commnication between me and my Beloved.
Coming up next: Strategies to help me meet these unmet needs of mine; things that will hopefully make life wonderful for me and them.
