Being Jennifer

The title is from one of my favorite films "Being Julia". I love it because it's partly about an aging actress learning how to become comfortable in her own skin...something I'm slowly starting to figure out (and accept).

Work in progress

I am a work in progress. We all are. Lately the parts of me that have been under construction are difficult to face. I know it's good to be working through these things, but I haven't been handling with the amount of grace that I would like. One of the most difficult things about this process (for me) is admitting what my junk is and then taking responsibility for it. I'm emotion driven and tend to react to issues in an emotional way. Not always the best thing to do...especially when I often vocalize what I'm feeling without considering the consequences. I'm working on it, but I think it's going to take a lot longer to work through this than I'd like...it already has.

So, here I am in the midst of another "growing experience" that I'm sure will feel good once the construction has been completed. Then there will be another part of me that needs some work. Hopefully I'll be willing to accept the work sooner.
