Keeping It Funky

Did you ever have it in the first place...

Sometimes, we go through that period of funk. We think, "Yeah, it will pass. I just don't know how I lost what I had," whether it was a sig fig, job, or friend. The question is, if we are in a period of funk, and we are looking for what went wrong, did we ever have control in the first place? I mean, were you really focused on that position you did have or did you ever have it? Were the two of you together because you really did care for each other, or were the both of you just kicking it and you caught feelings at the last minute? Friends come and go, but was that person your friend in the first place? The other real question is, even though we know it will pass, when's the new funk coming in? If you think about it, you may have always been in a funk, just trying to smell something different!

Sometimes, we lose focus. As you, I have been experiencing that. I don't know if it's always been like that or what, but I'm trying to reevaluate the reasons I am in this position. Sure, the next person can say, "Well, Ms. T, you didn't really put in effort," or "Ms. T, you did try but not hard enough," "It didn't fit you, anyway." Is it me, or did you not take the time to see what's been going on for me to not put in work? Are those the words I need to hear right now from you. I believe you should be more encouraging than that!

We get placed in situations that are comfortable for us, and we try not to venture out of that comfortability. A friend of mine over at Xanga called it a Potluck. When I read his words, I truely felt like he was speaking directly to me! Something to think about.
