Last night I had the greatest breakthrough! In the midst of an disagreement, I suddenly realized deep in my gut that I didn't need anyone's approval, only my own. I know that may sound trite, but it isn't at the level that I finally 'got it'. It is so darn freeing, not to be a slave to anyone's thoughts about what is right or appropriate. It has always been easy for me with people that I am not really intimate with, but with people I am close to, I always wanted their approval.
It is overcast and cold today, typical November weather in October. There is more than a hint of winter in the air. I have a roast in the oven. Cold weather food seems to be the order of the day.

November in October, eh? But then you don't get much cold, do you. Here on the left coast, it just rains and rains and rains almost everyday for months, and we call that winter. Then it doesn't rain for months, and we call that summer. Never does it get very cold though, although snow can be seen in the nearby mountains and driven to for skiing.
