Dependency

Setting into the grind.  The school workload picks up and I meet it with enthusiasm.  I see fellow peers around me collapsing with the work or complaining to themselves and their friends, but to me school has just begun.  I am ready to match everything thrown at me.  I am feeling confident with where I am in my life. I have just recently gotten back to the North Shore area after traveling cross-country camping in many of America’s most beautiful National Parks, sharing the whole experience with my amazing girlfriend. I follow a specific training regime with my bike and I am enjoying my rest day after being on the bike straight for eight days.  I have a very large family who is unique, challenging, rewarding and loving all at the same time.  Nothing is given for free in this life; no handouts are being doled out here. Although I feel I don’t need any, I am ready to work for what I want.  Thus I can feel a sense of accomplishment. 

If you are constantly given everything you need, you have fallen subject to being dependent on someone or something to keep you satisfied or happy.  I am working on finding my inner peace and being comfortable with me in any given situation.  I want to feel I have worked for my needs and that I am self-sufficient. Smooth and efficient will be the name of the game for me, staying ahead of the workload and the inevitable stress that accompanies it hand in hand.
