TRYING SOMETHING NEW

TRYING SOMETHING NEW

A few months back I ran from MS for many "logical" and "well thought out" reasons in my mind. Now that time has passed, I realize that it is my MO to do this in many parts of my life. By this, I mean that when something arises that makes me
super-emotional, I tend to run in fear. Some things happened in the chat room which made me upset and downright angry. And rather than confronting the issues.....I bolted out of fear. Fear that has been with me for decades. My fear runs in two directions. One that I will be hurt physically. Or two that if I become confrontational....I will lose control and crush someone physically or emotionally to try to say....."see you fucker, I'm not powerless, and this is what it feels like". Neither is the most productive way to live. Anyway.....this is just me trying something new. NOT BOLTING.
 
great realization
trying something new is scary
not running and facing feelings is hard but seems like maybe you are ready for it?
sounds like recovery to me....
 
Steven,
Fear? Join the club. Sort of shocking to discover every decision one makes in life is based on either fear or proving that I'm not afraid. You're right. Both poles are dangerous.
Glad you're back.

Steve,

Welcome back. It sounds to me like you are saying that neither living in fear nor replying aggressively to every perceived wrong is a way to live your life if what you want out of it is joy and peace. Pretty good conclusion so far as I can see! And as Thad says, sounds like recovery in the making.

Much love,
Larry
