I feel kind of bad. It's so easy to take things that we care for so much for granted from time to time. We get so used to having these fountains of good feelings in our lives that when they're temporarily dieverted we then feel neglected, and unfortunatly I began to feel slighted due to it. I hate that about me. It doesnt happen all that often, but when it does, it's difficult for me to realize I have been doing it. I usually say that Ive just about become the person I want to be emotionally...this is one of the things that keeps me from being there. But that's good I guess, I definetly wouldn't want to be complacent in bettering myself.

It's amazing how the smallest things we do can affect other people so. I mean, obviously we know when something that we do will be appreciated, but we can't usually tell just in what way it will be recieved. Something I did recently was recieved at a useful time, and was even more appreciated than I expected. It made me so incredibly glad. In fact, my day just got quite a lot better just due to that "thank you".

I really do feel so blessed to have the people in my life that I do. I may not be one of those people that forms a large number of friendships, but the ones that I do form I put a lot of energy into, and I feel so much more rewarded for doing so. I'm the type of person that puts a lot of trust into others easily, and will often sacrafice my emotions for the good of those whom I care for. So, it's good then that most of the people whom I allow deep contact with my life are people whom I feel completely at comfort in doing so for. This kind of harks back to my frist point of taking things for granted. I don't often step back and count my blessings for the people who are in my life. I truly do love you all, and I feel so thankful that you allow me to be part of your lives in the same way.

Okay, enough of the mushy emotional stuff, Im off to do stuff around the apartment.
