Not a Good Week

I haven't posted a blog entry in a while because I've had a hard time being positive lately. So rather than whine and complain, I just chose to not say anything at all (well, at least here). It's all part of my trying to be more of a "glass half-full" kind of person. But even half-full people have crappy weeks. And this has been one of them. So I'm blogging anyway.

Sorrow would be the word I choose to summarize many of my feelings this week. I won't go into details, but my heart is aching for people around me. Even now, I find myself crying again just thinking about them.

Anxiety is another word that could be added to the summary of my week. I hate feeling this way, but until some situations are resolved, I'm afraid this feeling is here to stay. If any of you out there are "Monk" fans, and you watched the final episode this week, you'll remember this conversation between Adrian and Dr. Bell:

(paraphrased) I hate the great unknown, what's so great about it anyway?
Maybe it's the 'not-so-great' unknown

In a rare role reversal, Gary was saying how glad he is to see this year be gone, how it's just been one bad thing after another. And then I was the one to point out the good things of the year to him. If only I can keep this attitude for the next while, maybe I will feel better, despite my sorrow and anxiety.
