Jackie, I know what you mean about not wanting to be vulnerable. Thats it in a nutshell why I am with calling off the reunion thing these days.I think I already stuck my neck out far enough and I don't want to loose my head over it.

And when we are ready to be vulnerable we will know it.. When we can take the slings and arrows.. and still be standing..
This book teaches us how to do some of the things that makes us strong..
It teaches us about staying in the moment.. and about how some of us do not handle anger very well.. anger is not meant to be acted out.. it is meant to be acted upon.. very different..
There is one week where a person is not distracted by outside things.. like TV and books and stuff like that..
She writes that a lot of us just concentrate on things outside ourselves.. like codependency.. and caretaking someone else at the cost of ourselves..
And she has a person check out why they are allowing others the right to take over.. biggie..

Back to the Artist Way(got my book today)I took an artist date about 2 years ago and went to Charleston. I didn't know what it was called then, of course.Just me and my dogs chasing seagulls on the beach in January,not a soul around but us. Later I wandered around the beautiful old city with my camera.

Yes.. I think she learned about artist dates or thought up the words from times like you are describing here..
I loved to walk my city..

The weather was warm and overcast so I got some great shots of doorways, just cool looking doorways. Some turned out pretty good. I'm not much of a photographer so I was pretty proud of the results.My goal is to be the person I was once before I got so lost, maybe even better. I think I got some creativity left in me. I just got to find it.
I know I got too much noise in my head.

She teaches us how to get rid of the noise.. how to pinpoint the distraction.. week by week..
