The Journal of Alison McKenzie A lovely weekend
08/01/2005 06:39 p.m.
It was wonderful, painful in parts, but endurable. I am learning that the pain of some experiences, if not avoidable, is also not going to destroy me.
And then there are the bright spots of the comfort of friends and the sparkling horizon of new days to come.
I bought two new clearance blouses this weekend, smaller than the last time I shopped and it thrilled me!
Friday night's concert was AWESOME. The guitarist's name is JoeSmith (one word) and he is a PHENOMINAL lyricyst (spelling?) I bought two of his CD's and I would highly recommend his music to anyone who enjoys a modern-folk sound.
I am currently Calm
I am listening to a new song in my heart

| Posted by Rula Shin on 08/02/05 at 05:14 PM It's not necessarily the pain which makes one grow, but the struggle itself, and while this can come with some pain, it also brings with it feelings of confidence and strength, basically it is the positive energies that we seek. We should seek to have within us at all times the ability to bring forth positive impressions needed to be happy despite any external situation, this is the main point of the struggle, to bring unity within. Well, it sounds like you are struggling Alison. I just hope that the pain is only a by product of facing yourself, and not something which is meaningless and/or harmful...
