So much has been happening as usual yet when it comes to documenting it, I always decide to ere on the side of caution.
My ankle is in pain but I am not using the crutch, I prefer the air cast because it is much more freeing. I will begin PT next week.
The year is winding down and I have so much to do yet, I have been procrastinating with some assignments. I finished one major one but I am in the hole for the 3 others. today I plan to work on 2 but I feel a little lost on one.
Otherwise, everything seems to be ok. As the end of the year approaches there will be many many changes. Some I am not looking forward to, and others, I am begging to happen.
I am still not happy with my contributions. I don't think I am at the point as yet where I am seeing some of the pictures. I know that one of the strong points is I am able to connect the readings to the events that are happening. However I am not sure if the others think these are relevant. To me, I think it is important to make connections so that theory does not just exist in flux.
What I find, unnerving is when someone agrees with what I am saying (cause sometimes, I am not sure where I am going with what I am saying...). I am just voicing a thought to clarify where my head is (usually muddled).
I find the others in the Reform class so much more eloquent that I am at times.
I think I hang on to hope when most others give up and as a result it usually leaves me hurt. In Shawshank Redemption, Morgan Freeman mentions that 'hope is a good thing'. I am leaning toward hope being a painful thing, win or lose. I think hope is about sacrifice.
On to smaller topics.
I found out that one of my Brit friends who I met in Japan may be coming to the U.S. for a conference. Things are still up in the air but, it would be nice to see a familiar face here. I was lucky that when I was in UK last summer we were able to meet-up and I was taken on a tour, a 3 hour tour, until the weather started getting rough...
My summer plans are coming together but I think I need to keep busy. With people departing and not coming back, I fear it will take a toll on my happiness factor.
