People who need People

People Who Need People

I think we all need people, but at times I find I need other people in different ways or in different amounts. When I am hurt, confused, concerned, unsure of myself, I tend to have a great need to process the information that is making me feel that way. One way that I feel works very well for me is to talk to a friend or loved one. Sometimes I choose the person to "process" with by their particular set of skills--good listener--practical--knows me well--fellow teacher--whatever fits the situation. What I do not feel is helpful to me is to keep it all stuffed inside and not let it out--for me, that leads to poor sleep, poor eating habits, and a lot of unneeded heart ache.

I hope that everyone that reads this has someone (or two or three) that they can talk to when they (you) need to process some tough feelings.

Take care,
MissT
