Bird Scouting... Proof of My Warping
« on: April 18, 2008, 09:33:55 AM »
Hey Guys,
I just had to bring this up as I noticed it/figured it out this week...
I have been enjoying watching and studying birds while we have lived in Virginia. My kids and I got books on VA birds and we set out a bird feeder and we watch to see who comes. I have learned a bit about a lot of birds.
But I always feel like it is a "test" and I am not sure if I am passing. Did I really see a Carolina Chicadee? What if it was a Black Cap???? I can't ever feel like I can really "check off" a bird, because what if it wasn't that one, but one like it.
Is that warped or what????? I feel like I need someone to "check my work" and prove that I am right.
I guess tis is why I am having problems dealing with accepting the Nishness of my M and moving along???????
But also, personality-wise, soes that mean I still seek approval? Or what???????
Anyone relate??? Have ideas????
Love, Beth

That is so funny, Beth. I know what you are saying ,that the N messages invade ALL parts of life.
I do this with feeling like I am a failure in ALL parts of my 'being". It  pervades me.
It can only help to see it. I am going to watch for it and identify it, too. You have inspired me(lol)      Love   Ami

I have cardinals in my backyard. They are so beautiful.

Oh Grats,

I don't know about your birds but I'm having troubles with a squirrel.  It hates me.  Last year it ran across the top of my house to the back and jump on trees screaming at me the whole time I was walking.  I really thought the squirrel was going to jump on my head.  My kids found this funny and  never seen this squirrel do this. They think I'm nuts because he is always just a squirrel who runs all cute up the tree when they are around. 

The other day he did it to me again but in the front of my yard.  Once again it was when No one was around.  I called my daughter to tell her the squirrel is back and in return she told her job because they all think it's really funny.  She came home and no where for that squirrel to be found.  I think that squirrel is using gaslighting on me. 

I'm trying to expose a squirrel for the FAKE he is.  LOL Im losing it.

Love
Deb
