I had to get my yard ready to sell my house and was able to purchase a topiary plant for myself that I’m taking to my new residence. That it is still alive and a reminder of peacefulness for me is the small beauty I noticed this morning when I went out on the porch. It seems so happy to just be in the sun and alive. I wish I were more like that a bit. 🙂

I’m such a pushover. I need to stand up for myself in situations that make me uncomfortable. I think I’m defined by my career and look as being ‘book-ish’ and smart when I only really am average in those areas. People tend to think I know more than I feel like I do.
