Delving into unchartered territories

Feeling better and back at work. Just a stomach bug. Apparently "its been going around."

5 days into the New Year - it has gotten better for me. I feel better (not sick anymore). I'm getting back into yoga (tonight). Eating healthier (I think I've already had 2 salads this year!) And I'm starting to plan my wedding again (this weekend). This should be an exciting year for me although with recent wedding stress, I will remain guarded for now. I was recently told that I seem to be the kind of person who believes everyone is inherently good, who wants the best for the world and will put others before herself any day. I've always secretly believed this too, but its humbling and a bit comforting to hear it from someone else. I've always felt that if it was possible to lead a perfect life, I was probably living it. Great family, great friends, great fiance, great future. Very little stress. Its funny that its taken the act of planning a wedding for me to realize that my life is not this perfect, nor has it ever been that perfect. I do believe that my wedding stress is more stressful than most have encountered in planning their weddings, but I know that many could prove that wrong for me too. I'm slowly creeping into reality. And although its a bit scary, it feels good. It will make me stronger and more "well-rounded." I'm ready for the challenge that lies in facing the unknown.

To planning a wedding and the unknown of '06!
