Things have changed a lot for me-- a lot and seemingly only a little and with much effort-- but not enough-- and perhaps the wrong kind.
My work is going better after years of not being able to improve it, and things have taken shape a bit in my mind, so I feel that I"m seeing things more clearly.
My mother died, and I"ve been dealing with that. But since we were not close, it's harder in a way to celebrate her life, or grieve. I've worked and am working on that.
It sometimes seems like a matter of inches, not miles-- but maybe that's just my pessimism and denigration of my effort--which I"m also working on.
I've gone to Frankfurt, Vienna, Paris, and gotten back a little to studying Japanese ( at a beginning level) and reading a bit more. I really hope to read more-- but...
it's been a good period despite everything--
For some reason, I"m glad psychobabble is back online--even if the last year here was often blighted by antagonisms, and frustrations.. I hope I can see more of the good, and be less distressed by whatever troubles me here.-- and in general.
