    Anyway, greetings from the other side!

    This is why I drank as often as I did... and why it ended up being a problem in my 20s that required intervention. :grimace:

    The freeing feeling of reaching that state is amazing, so long as you don't end up doing or saying things you'll regret later. Also, the hangover is awful.

    I find tipsy to be a pleasant state now, with minimal chance that I'll have an awful hangover headache the next day.

    I love squirrels. My sister used to coax them into the house with peanuts. They would be running along the backside of the couch and swinging from the curtains when my mother wasn't looking. We hauled my sister's pet squirrel 'Peanuts' into town by accident. It was riding in the vehicle for over 60 miles and it jumped out when we stopped. My folks were running all over the place trying to coax the squirrel back so we could take it home. My sister was bawling her head off and she's never forgotten that squirrel.

    There's nothing better than being bossed around by a squirrel up in a tree.

    Aww, why they gotta be so cute?? :heart:

    They're cute because they have true personalities. They're smart and they're true to their nature. Nature is honest and delightful. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

    Are we who we are because that's what we think people want us to be or are we who we are because that's truly who we are? And how can we tell the difference? They say Just be you. But who am I really and do I want to be that person or somebody different?

    Yes.

    I think it's a bit of everything. I think a large part of my life I was more in the first category - wanting to make everyone happy, so shaping my emotions, reactions, behaviours in terms of other people's expectations of me. I hate to say it, but if I'm honest, I still do to a large extent.

    But who we are is how we behave - so regardless of whether someone else molded our behaviours, or whether they were self designed, it is still who we are. Besides, I don't think anyone is ever going to be entirely self made. External influences are always present.

    How we can tell the difference, in my opinion, is probably best measured by our level of inner peace. Are you happy with who you seem to be? Does it feel like it matches who you think you are? Or do you feel like no one knows the real you? If the latter, then MFP is a great way to socially experiment. Be the person you want to be. Say the things you want to say, befriend the people you want to know better. It really helped me realize that the person I wanted to be was actually loved (and maybe more than the person I felt I should be). Anonymity can sometimes help you learn how to be real, because the risk isn't as great. (Internet person rejection doesn't hurt as much as in-person rejection... usually)

    Keep in mind that (unless we're dead, or incredibly narcissistic), most people want to change to some extent. We continue to grow and develop our whole lives - and that's a good thing. We don't know everything now, so as we learn, we shift and adapt. (That is something I took from the book "The subtle art of not giving a *kitten*").


    Anyhoo... thanks for making me think. Sorry if I thought too much out loud. lol
