Day 2 Rather not!

[Vital_Nature]

I discovered that I'd really rather not think about what makes me angry or sad. Anything but that! It sat on my desk all day, but I finally turned to it, completed it, and I survived! Nothing awful in there, but I really don't like to ponder these things. I suspect this theme will repeat itself as the days progress!

In looking at the Commitment page, I realize that my pain isn't so bad to make me miss things I love doing. It just gets in my way when I want to do simple things, like tie my shoes or get into a car.

Moving along! Day 3 tomorrow.

Hi Jeff,
You are stretching yourself, and realize you'll be OK. That's great. The SEP is designed to give you a little inquiry at a time, and not overwhelm you. In time, you may actually enjoy investigating and feeling that which is a little scary or sad. For many of us, there is a satisfaction that comes from finally being with --in a gentle way-- those things inside that we've been running from. Sounds like you're on your way.
