I haven't written in a while because I've been struggling. A lot. With myself. With my life. Emotionally. I've been wondering why I can't be myself in many situations, can't speak freely, and thus remain quiet much of the time. My anxiety is out of control. Most of what I'm dealing with isn't fit to write, but I'm trying to work through it. I recognize I can't change anything or anyone except myself. I'm working on my self-talk. Today, I happened upon this TED Talk that I really needed to hear. If you have an extra 20 minutes, I would advise you to give it a watch. While I can't control how other people see me and judge me, I can see myself in a better light. So can you. Perhaps if we can practice unconditional positive regard for ourselves, we can start to see others in a better light as well.
