This is personal. Not detailed (I'll spare you) but important.
I have developed a bad attitude, BA for short. (Thank you EMS staffers, hee hee.) I have had one for some time, but it was only recently that I realized it had morphed. Ugh, ugly word, maybe increased. Or, no, morphed fits it best.
I have always had very strong opinions. Always. Even as a kid, though I always kept them to myself. I think it may have just been something to do with the way I was, personality wise, always wanting to please and not make waves. I guess also due to the fact that I didn't want to hear another's opinion on my views.
Well now, I am in the water with large paddles..... splashity splash!
It wasn't until talking with friends, especially my neighbor friends and my DH that it dawned on me. This summer was a huge turning point for me. I reached my absolute max in everything. I am so sure of what I want- in life, with relationships, and every other facet. I guess it was a time of clarity. Though I didn't make all the connections until now.
Odd thing this brain is.
Now I have this incredible urge to tell what I think. I am being open. About my feelings.
What a liberating experience.

*grin* You remind me of my sister!
Good for you.
Keeping everything inside can be very stressful. I'm glad you have learned to 'let it all hang out'. But best to learn moderation in all things, I think. My Mom always told me that I didn't have to say everything I was thinking!
So the EMS mods club really is the 'dark side'?
How's being honest about what you feel the same as having a bad attitude? I wish more people had that!
I agree with Barbara. I don't consider that bad attitude. It's good to know where you want to be and what you want from life. Hitting that moment of clarity is liberating. Don't let anyone take that from you.
Hi, just answering your question about my Mirabilia RR...it was just something I arranged with a couple of friends - we each stitched one lady/fairy on each RR. We marked out the boxes before sending them around and we discussed themes although we left that kind of loose as we know each other's tastes quite well. I liked the smaller RR - less committment in time and also because it was with 2 friends I knew there would be no issues with someone flaking out as sometimes happens with RRs.
As you said, I like the fact you get a 'bite' of a Mira without committing to a whole one. I just need to decide which one to stitch on mine now to finish it off!
*huggles!!*
Good for You!! I really wish I could be like that!
I think that's a great place to be at, personally. I don't think it's a bad attitude, either. I think that being open and honest about what your wants and needs are in order to have them met is a very mature thing. I started getting there last year and find it quite liberating.
