I actually slowed a bit to focus on other projects, but The Fray is still growing and I am so proud!

Over complicating situations is the theme of today’s blog. It occurred to me that while I love glitz and glam, human interactions are less of an indulgence for me. If we can’t stick to honesty, genuine kindness and love, it’s not for me.

I cut people off like infected limbs.

Being watched, having people compare themselves to me, with me needing to defend what I do when something good happens – I am tired. I’ve had my fill. I want authentic connections, or I don’t want anything at all.

I’m not going to change. I am honest, exuberant, eccentric, intelligent and wise. Anyone who hasn’t found themselves is a risk I’m not willing to take!

There’s never a need to compete with anyone. If you are, it’s testament to how miserable you are – and that is a you problem.

I have very few friends now, and I am. It upset in anyway. Lessons have been learned, eyes opened even more so.

The last time I cut a lot of people out of my life, I started self publishing. Interesting.
