Just Me and Me...

Back in the day (or at least back in my day...that's not too long ago!), the group Tony! Toni! Tone! wrote a song entitiled "Just Me and You". The song tells the story of a guy that is eager to get to know his girlfriend in a more intimate way. In the song, the brotha is telling his girlfriend that they need to spend some time alone just getting to know more about each other...he tells her it's time for them to get personal.

As usual, the question is, "What relevance does this have in my life?" Well, I've decided that I need to spend some time simply with me. I need to stop worrying about other people's opinions of me and just do ME and ME for a little while...

This is quite a challenge...I've never done this before. Quite frankly, I don't think I've ever been comfortable spending time with myself. It gives me too much time to think and reflect (which I don't really want to do) about my goals and dreams...it gives me time to think about my flaws and mistakes...it's give me a lot of time to think about my life. Unfortunately, for me, my life feels like a complete failure right now in every area...thus the reason why I'm trying to focus on spending time with myself for the next 30 days. I think I need this time to heal from some of the pain and hurt that I've felt (and am stil feeling) in my life this year.

So, I figured, I would blog about my experiences with "me" during the next 30 days...I think it will be therapeutic. So far, it hasn't been too bad.

Day 1: Went to dinner by myself...I had a great time and got to read in a peaceful environment!

Day 2: Went to see Nights in Rodanthe

Day 3: No official plans for today, but I am going to do some reading later on...

I'm excited and nervous about what the next 26 days have in store for me...

In case you never heard the song...here it is:
