Knowing vs. Doing

I think I know what I need to do, or rather, what not to do. I know I should back away slowly 'n' carefully rather than rush forward w/my heart on a platter. Finding it difficult to act sensibly while my heart's wanting what it wants even as my brain says I cannot have it. *sigh* Seeing/knowing this helps, yet still part of me wants to petulantly stomp my foot and shout "unfair" and launch into an explanation into the Truth TMM, even as I know it's just how I see things which ain't really/necessarily/fully the TRUTH...and I know doing doing this that wouldn't be wise (or likely helpful). And so I'll merely sigh deeply and keep bizzy w/other things 'n' stuff rather than lob grenades into ant-hills.

The quickie SoCal visit went quite well. Got to visit with many good folks, attend a lovely wedding celebration of a couple Dear Friends, continue my bday celebration, visit Huntington Gardens for the first time in way too long, and enjoy a sweet shrubbery sunset over the ocean. So very glad I no longer live there and instead live here in PDX!
