Discovery of the day: the reason I dislike message board posts that are written with a tone of sneering disdain.

For a long, long time posts written in that tone have tripped a trigger in me, one of annoyance with the poster. Even if I tended to agree with the sentiment (which usually is dislike of something), the tone made me cringe.

Today, it dawned on me that the sneering disdain reminds me of unpleasant, unkind things said to me many years ago.

No wonder I dislike it so much.

February 22

Last year around this time, I started accompanying a friend on a kind of journey.

I knew going into this that the journey would not be easy. But I also knew it was my privilege to be on it.

I knew the journey would lead me to think outside myself. Little did I know the journey would also lead through some hidden places in my mind.

I have learned much. I have received and given. It has been both exhausting and exhilarating.

And is one of the most worthwhile things I have ever, ever done.

The journey continues.
