Goals

I have been feeling very tired and just plain lathargic lately. I think a lot of this has to do with the fact that my sleep pattern is all screwed up. But I just remember last summer and how I would run a lot after work. I was so much more energetic and over all happy when I did that. This summer though I just feel unmotivated. So far the summer has been really hot and uncomfortable which only makes me want to stay inside and sleep even more. I’ve noticed that my head feels really heavy and I’m unable to enjoy the things that used to make me happy.

So I have decided that I will do more spiritual work in my life. I have a lot of books I can read and this should keep my mind open to new and exciting things. I will also meditate for 15 minutes every day. Hopefully I can learn to sit longer but for now 15 minutes is the goal. In the fall when school starts I plan on going to the fitness center on campus and excersing at least 3 times a week. I know that if I can stick with it I will feel better-physically and mentally…

RYN: I’ve known Noah for the past 12 years. We’ve been engaged for 3 of those years. We know each other very well, including when to leave each other alone, how to push each other’s buttons and when we’re just having major communication issues. That’s the case right now – communication issues. It’s not that we don’t talk to each other. We’re very open and very honest. In 12 years, we’ve never lied to each other once…even though the truth wasn’t always easy to hear or to say. We respect each other very much – we just don’t listen the same way. We don’t know how to communicate EFFECTIVELY so that the other person not only HEARS, but UNDERSTANDS. Every word in the English language can be intrepreted differently. It’s hard sometimes, but we’re in it for life. We love each other madly. Take care and thanks for your notes

I, very much, completely relate to your 1st paragraph. That definitely sounds like how I’ve been feeling for a while now. I really need to change it. Hopefully my upcoming 1/2 business, 1/2 pleasure trip coming up will help get things going the other way for me. Good luck on your quest!
