Things have been refreshingly great for me. I have really been taking the time to concentrate on myself. I've been doing some thinking on what it is I want. Also have been looking at my past patterns and figuring out what it is that I don't want and figuring out why I accepted less then I deserve. I've really been realizing that I've been cutting myself short of what I need and deserve. I shouldn't settle for less. I'm a good person and I deserve to be treated well.

 

I've been taking TBF's advice, and applying it to my daily relationships. I've been putting more confidence into myself as well. I'm loving myself more for who I am. Strangely enough, I've gotten a lot of positive reactions. I think I've been more approachable. The stress level of my home life has dropped, like to nothing. I had a big heart to heart talk with my mom. We've actually been getting along wonderfully lately. Things I used to get screamed at for are now laughed off.

 

I feel like the weights on my shoulders are finally lifting, and it feels wonderful :) It is helping me see more clearly.

Excellent DG - well done on the personal growth without the stress of dating.

 

Enjoy the summer hiatus and maybe resume in the fall.

Wow, that's great to hear about your home life! Everyone deserves to be treated with respect, if they give respect.

 

Be happy dreamer! :):bunny:

I'm happy to read this. This is exactly what I'd been hoping you would have done a long time ago... sometimes people just need to refocus and recharge... it's surprisingly refreshing

Typically on a sabbatical, you write a research paper and get it published. How is that going?
