ONE-SENTENCE JOURNAL From: Miscellaneous

I had a revelation last night. I got that tight feeling in my chest that I get when I'm upset with Dan and I can't get it to go away. and I realized- I'm not upset with what he did. I'm upset that he didn't do what I would have done.

I like to bike. When I'm biking, I want to smile and laugh at everything, and I want to share my joy with others.

Dan loves my body, just the way it is, regardless of what I think of it. Amazing.

Have to work late tonight and can't go to class. Can't believe that I am YEARNING to do something physical with my body, even if it means being late for girls night. Will bike ride to girls night and try to yoga when I get home

RESOLUTIONS: Dance Dance Revolution!

I've given myself the gift (not the chore) of a month of dance classes at a studio. What joy! I resolve to thank myself for this gift by attending classes mindfully, every day, except on show days.

My body is giving me messages, and they all say the same thing: find a way to deal with this stress, or we will incapacitate you. Thank you for the tough love, body. You take good care of me.

We live in an era of enormous cynicism. Do not be fooled. Don't act for money. You'll start to feel dead and bitter. Don't act for fame. You'll start to feel dead, fat, and fearful. We live in an era of enormous cynicism. Do not be fooled.

I used to be a wonderful speller, and now I'm just average.I'm choosing to believe it's so I have room to be wonderful at something else.
