Making It Work

It's mostly just me talking...to myself. It's cheaper than therapy and safer than leaving a diary hanging around the house. I will try really hard to not be whiny or boring but no promises. I can be a real slug. pregnancy week by week

seperating dreams from reality

not as easy as you would think. now i am no psychologist, and i havent been studied or anything, but you know when you have a dream and it seems so real and then when you find out its not, you are really pissed off? i think i better provide an example. so last night i had a dream that darin and i were getting married in like a week. and he just sprung it on me. like "hey, we're in love, what are we waiting for, lets get married." so in my dream, i was burning songs on cds for the wedding, i picked out a wedding dress, and i was a lovely hotel room washroom getting ready. i was putting on my make up in the mirror in the washroom, and people, i am telling you, this dream was so real. and when i woke up and darin didn't look like he wanted to get married, i was really disappointed. i even cried a little on the way to work. and then i called him later in the morning to ask him how to open the hood of the car and he was not helpful at all i realized, this person does not want to get married.

bottom line, dreams are stupid and not at all reality.

    Just what is it you see in this guy? Personally, I'd rather be single. Consider it a blessing that he won't commit, and move on.

    dreams aren't stupid and they can be reality--hang in there. if i had given up when i thought it was hopeless (and believe me, it seemed hopeless) i never would have been open to realizing my dream when it was ready to come true.

    perhaps you're dreaming the wrong dreams about the wrong person, or the right dreams about the wrong person, or the right dreams about the right person--but just a little too soon. whatever the case, it ain't the dream's fault so don't give up on that.

    you're young, plenty of dreams left in you, and plenty of time for them to come true. don't panic. don't settle. but don't dellude yourself either--if he isn't your "dream" guy, go find the real one. it'll happen. you're too awesome for it not to.

    and when it does happen, it will be that much more amazing because you'll have known what it was like before. makes you take less for granted. trust me. so really, when you think about it--the longer it takes, the better. okay, you might not believe me now, but it's true. really!

    My 2ยข:
    A dream should make you happy. The person who fulfills your dreams should also make you happy.

    If one leg of this logical ladder is missing the whole thing falls over.

    Does your dream make you happy?

    Does the person you're fitting into that dream right now make you happy?

    I don't know this dude. But if there is truth in blogs it seems as if you're hanging on mainly 'cos it's better than what you see as the alternative.

    Your dreams are rational as anyone else's.

    If he isn't making you happy most of the time, DTMFA and get on with other things.

    Mme Metro talks about "baiting the Murphy trap"-- getting on with your life and doing what you have to instead of hoping the situation's going to change.

    And if she and I hadn't both done it we would never have even met.

    Bait your own Murphy trap, sez I.
