I've been doing some thinking these days (what else is new) and I realize that I need to do some weeding--both literally and figuratively. I've been taking care of my friend's backyard and it's overgrown with a bunch of weeds. By the way, does anyone know if arugula is a weed? Figuratively, I think I need to eliminate unnecessary burdens in my life. There are a lot of things/people that I'm holding on to because I think I should and not because I want to. I need to weed out those things to make more time for things/people that are most important to me. Recently, someone told me that they feel like I'm always suffering for one reason or another. Although I'm not a masochist, I've come to accept that the majority of my suffering is indeed self inflicted. Sigh. I just want the people that I care about to be happy, but it takes a lot of work.
