| | i absolutely suck and receiving constructive criticism from people i care about.  but that doesn't mean i don't need it and appreciate it after the fact.. too bad we can't stop time to unleash negative emotions when something's initially said and then un-pause and handle it gracefully once we're past the 'dealing with it' phase.
there's nothing sweeter than a difficult day with a group being completely turned around when a kid says to you at the end: "you're very nice to us. you're a good leader," and you wanna melt and give them a hug. :) i love my job for those turnarounds..
i think i need to let go of what others think i should be doing in my life.. i used to be good at letting their ideas roll off my back but lately i've been second-guessing myself more.. it makes me feel like i don't know myself or maybe my place in the world.. at least for a little while. i come right back to my typical stubborn 'i'm gonna do it my way like always' again, but for a while i'm stuck in indecision city. i'm glad i don't have a plan because it opens up all the roads and makes me feel like i can do anything, that i'm not locked down, and that it's okay to experiment and feel out a lot of paths before i settle into one for a while. i think i'd rather swim with alligators than sit down and make a five-year or ten-year plan and try to stick to it.
