They say that admitting you have a problem is the first stage of recovery. Admitting all of my problems could take quite a while, and, quite frankly, I'm terrified to face them all.
My initial thought in creating this blog was to help myself lose weight. I thought if I created a situation where I was posting things publicly, I would be more motivated to produce results. However, as I thought about this and other issues in my life, I began to realize that trying to lose weight this way is doomed to failure just like everything else I've tried. I have a much bigger issue in my life. I deal with difficult issues by pretending they don't exist. I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with this. I just know it has to be done.
New Year's resolutions seldom work, so I'll keep this one as realistic as I can. I resolve to keep this journal updated at least once a week, and I resolve to be as honest as I can be. My goal is to learn that facing reality does not require me to lose all hope.
Aprendo esperar.
