I spoke before about this blog being a great tool for keeping me honest and I thought about that over the weekend.
I am beginning to realize how much the blog is like a mirror. When I look in the mirror there is no one there that I can lie to.The face in the mirror knows the truth. The face in the mirror is not impressed with some bullshit story about how hard I worked or how little I ate. He is not swayed by the fact that by eating broccoli I offset the 6 glazed doughnuts.
The face in the mirror does not care if I worked hard or what I ate, the face in the mirror knows if I am telling the truth or lying.What he does with this knowledge means the difference between learning from my education and remaining where I am at.
Albert Einstein is quoted as "INSANITY--doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". Now that cat must have been pretty smart!!If the truth was know I bet he was a cowboy.
So, to me this blog is like the mirror in that I could type in any bullshit story I want and few would know the difference--me being one of the few.
I think the person who reads my posts the most often is me.I have been going back and reading what I wrote just to see what I was thinking(reflecting I guess).You know from reading what I wrote as little as 3 months ago I can tell when I was down and when I was thrilled---why?--because I know the truth.
I would encourage anyone starting a trip like mine to start a blog about the journey.It has done wonders for me.

My blog has done wonders for me too. Though sometimes I can not bring myself to read some of my posts back. They make me cringe.
ReplyDeleteThe Einstein quote makes a lot of sense.
And your last sentence... *nods*
