I need to stop navel gazing

your true color is Black! Your color is black. The color of night. Serene and mysterious, black conjures up images of elegant evening gowns, dashing tuxedos, and gleaming limousines. Traditionally a symbol of success, black also represents power and an uncompromising demand for perfection. Not surprisingly, you tend to set challenging goals for yourself and do whatever it takes to achieve them — your strength of character is second to none. This unfaltering determination, along with your natural elegance, impresses people. But keep in mind that your personality might be intimidating to some. Try to temper your demanding side with a little softness — trust us, it won't kill you. Overall, though, black is the color of professionalism and achievement, which means it's clearly the color for you. (from Tickle)

I guess I do push myself pretty hard. and I do need to temper it. Now. It's now or never. There are a few things I really need to give up. Like my job. and I really need a nice big slice of humble pie. I really really really need to learn humility.

you know. as socrates or plato said....well, something along the lines of "the smartest people realise that there are so many more things they don't know". I really am no longer young enough to know everything.

and I need to learn to be less....black or white. more grey. There was a time when I was encouraged to draw more boundaries. But I think I bought myself a pen and went a little crazy with it.

we'll see.
