Rather Cluttered

I am having a time where recent events have generated so many blog posts in my head.  I will try to separate the topics the best I can.

First off, Happy 2010!!!  I cannot believe we have finished another decade.  So much has happened in the last year, it is unreal.  I learned about my codependency.  I discovered so much anger and resentment within.  I have realized just how low my self-worth is.  I have found so much self-hatred and punishment in my ways.  I have truly seen how negative I can be.  I am slowly getting so that awareness does not spiral into guilt and shame.  It is not easy.  I have mistreated myself and others rather badly.  I also have problems with emotional eating and disorganization.  Finances are another issue.  A very sick relative is yet another.  I feel heavy on the shoulders.

However, I have gotten a good kick in the pants recently.  Being positive really helps me.  I know there is abundance and joy in life if one looks for it.  Plus, I feel that I can bring the 'badass' in me that I've inherited.  Over this year, I have gotten stronger.  I know I can get stronger yet.  I know I can get through a lot.  This reminds me of a quote.

Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive. ~Josephine Hart

I first discovered that quote here.  I have visited that quote page for years and years.  I rather like it.  I like to read the Adversity section when I feel down.  Please share what quotes you find that you like.  It's fun seeing what inspires others.

I have topics in mind in regards to change, codependency, self-worth, assertiveness, and probably some other stuff.  I will post more personal stuff on my other blog as well.

I have been trying to check up on other blogs.  Thank you all for updating and sharing!  Take care and have a wonderful 2010!  *hugs*  <3
