Today I am grateful for:
-rediscovering Wee Sing videos. I still love them and I don't care. They bring me comfort
-having lunch with Jen Scott. Actually, kind of having the day with Jen. We first had lunch at midtown global market, then I had a stupid couple hours waiting for nothing at the dmv, then I watched Oscar for about an hour and then just chilled with Jen on her couch for awhile. It was nice. I think I was craving a little bit of time with other people. I felt bad because I really was there for no reason. I didn't want to be taking up more of her time than necessary, but at the same time I was really happy to just be around people.
-Jen packing me a dinner bag to go. Super sweet.
-Group. It was really nice tonight actually. Maybe because the focus wasn't on me and I was really able to just sit and listen to what the other ladies were going through.
-Being present. The other day a friend of mine was talking to me about some issues she was experiencing. At one point she said, "For the most part, things are good so I really shouldn't complain." I sat with that for a minute and said, "But you can." And she looked at me and laughed and said, "Thanks, Marit." I got super uncomfortable. That is not the first time someone has said something like that to me. I honestly don't know how I feel about it. On the one hand, Marit's a genius so in a way what they said was a compliment? I think? On the other hand, I wasn't trying to be her therapist. I was talking to her as a friend. Or so I thought. I don't know. I feel conflicted. I also don't really think I can talk to my therapist about this.
