So much has happened in that while that I'm not always sure where I stand with things. While this does seem generate questions like, "Why not?" or "What's wrong in your head?", or even, "O...kaaayyy...", the fact of the matter is that I've been so busy at work the last few months that I haven't been able to actually stop and look at the world around me. I'm only now finally reaching a point where I can slow down and start noticing things, but with the process having been so involved over the last few months, I know it'll still be another few months before I can finally say, wow, I'm now totally in the swing of things, man!
Woodly-oodly-woohoo!!
Don't ask. Just... don't.
So, with this being January 2015 by the Gregorian Calendar, some things had to change end of last year for this year to do what I want it to do.
So, da leest stahts off:
- After a long and rather shameful emotional battle with myself, I accepted that I have depression. However, I am taking steps to working with / against it so that, as long as possible, I can avoid the medical bandwagon that involves pills or other treatment. So far I've been doing really well, so, Self- and Goddess-willing, I will beat this beeyotch.
- As a part of this self-treatment, I've restarted my entire Second Degree training. That means I'm dong everything again, with the new class, from Module 1, assignments and tests, etc., all included. Some would see that as a step back, but I felt I needed to do this if I want to become a proper priest and not just some sort of title-holder.
- I'm reading again, which took much less emotional and time-finaggling than I thought it would. It helps that I have a tablet with an e-reader programme on it. I got something like 100 or so books from two of my friends that I am slowly working my way through. I LOVE IT!!
- As part of a side progect to expand my horizons, I sent in and was accepted by Bee Recruitment to fill a client services post at Media 24. Although there are days when I wonder what I'm doing here, and I still make some really silly mistake, I love my work here. I still struggle with anything financial, but the actual client services part of it all is really quite rewarding.
- Near the beginning of October, the week before I started my training at M24, I finally moved in with Julian and his family. Mostly him, since I don't really mix with the rest of the family. Make no mistake, I love them all to bits, but I'm a homebody, so if there's no need or desire for me to leave my nest, I don't. Deal with it :P
- I'm making myself take an interest in the lives of those around me. I don't usually not have an interest, but I;m trying to make more of an effort to try and associate with people more than books or old movies. This also means that, as of the end of this month, I'll start reading my cards actively again instead of through some form of pressure or as part of a social gathering. I've half not missed my cards, and as a tarotist, that feeling is really strange.
