I saw it as becoming a better person or changing some destructive behavior or changing or growing in some way is not easy and it's painful and only one can do it, only one can help oneself and no one else.
I can see that... how growing as a human being would be compared to becoming a great piece of art. We're marble which in itself is already beautiful but we must shape it ourselves... 'shape' ourselves

-- I love this quote. It reminds me of a guy I saw on Oprah who was born with no legs and small stumps for arms. His parents decided to treat him like any normal child and would you know that he learned to do eVeRyThInG on his own. He had what he had and he had to learn how to use it. He could even type faster than me on a regular keyboard! He was the oldest and had two three younger siblings and he'd help around with them and fight with them and his parents never gave him any special attention or had a prefenrential attitude towards him... they even let him join the football team in high school! They showed clips of him in practices and man did I feel sorry for him... he did it until he figured he wouldn't get anywhere with it... no shit! But then he tried out wrestling and sucked for the first year but kept at it and became undefeated! His parents said that sometimes it was a pain to see him but they never ever told him that he COULDN'T do something. He does everything any other person does perfectly... probably with more effort but he uses what he's got. Good example.

How sweet DB, you a poet? (re: "...there's a place...")

I won't get bent out of shape - I just respond impulsively. I actually am a pretty relaxed person. Many people, including raging angry customers, to people after an accident, to cops - have made comments that I'm being "too calm" for the situation. Composure pi $ $ es people off, It's more fun than freaking to how they want you to. hehe, EXPECIALLY the PIGS! 🙂

I seem to often be tired and sleep WAY too much. I love sleeping, but I am wasting my life away with it. I can easily sleep 12 hours and my record is TWO FULL DAYS.

Any suggestions? Anyone else in this boat, or should I say bed?
