Doing one thing is infinitely more than doing nothing. I can take a step.

Please do not leave advice. Thank you. Prayers welcome.
I can't take facebook anymore. I mean, I know I'll be back. I get the urge to want to "act out" in my drama-addiction, which is really my love addiction. B/c I keep thinking I'm gonna win someone over. I really can't stand reading about how everyone on my friends list has three degrees, six figure income, a mansion in an upwardly mobile suburb, has 1.5 children and is now happily married for life. It's just like...too much for me. I don't sincerely envy them though, since I don't want to be married right now I just want to be in a relationship, provided I've other friendships, which I don't. I don't want to have children. And I don't want to live in a suburb, unless I must do it for school. I want to live in an urban area or a country area. But I would like a mansion, a six figure income or more, and three degrees (I'm working on the third one and fourth one right now). But the point is, I hate comparing myself to other people. I don't want to do that, and yet I feel like depressed, when I go to facebook and see what people have done with their lives. I totally start comparing myself and feeling bad, instead of feeling great about what I *have* done. I don't think facebook is bad. I think that I'm afraid of interacting in a very real sense with people. I have a social awkwardness that I'm trying to bridge with social activities right now in my life...and yet....
Everytime I go on facebook, and check out fotos of other people, I feel like I'm just working myself into a hole of preoccupation. The feeling going through my mind is, "I will always be alone." It almost feels like looking at the pictures, I start thinking this thought. Actually, I feel this way even when I take a month off of facebook, so I know it's no facebook. The point is that facebook does nothing to bridge my level of dissatisfaction with my social life. I don't get anything out of facebook. I mean, it was one thing when I had a blog, and I could make people *Love* me or be interested in me as a person with my words. But with facebook, no one is looking for that. The feeling I have is mostl a neutral feeling toward facebook, except when I do something or saysomething that embarrasses me. I am trying to manifest what my sponsor asked of me: being a dignified person. The way I can realize that most readily is NOT embarrassing myself on a social networking site, actually overcoming my procrastination addiction, following through on my promises to myself and other people. I don't know how I feel about FB right now, I just know it's not a good feeling that I get when I see a certain someone or other's page and it's not a good feeling... It's not about facebook it's just me, trying to get high. I want to be a persona of dignity, before I can be a person of dignity, but it is a bloody tough thing to do.

OCz, please look at yesterday's posts!!
Hi All,
I have the interview tonight for the dog walking position and I'm nervous, fearing I won't get it. I came back to work today after being out since before the holiday and was swamped. Got a lot of things done, but not the things in my piles sitting, waiting, staring!!!
I will keep turning my fears, nerves and desperation over to HP. I felt somewhat rejected on the phone with this person yesterday, so my wheels are spinning and, of course, I'm hyper-sensitive. I really want out of here, but today everyone was so nice and pleasant, I'm having doubts about wanting to leave. One thing I know THIS TOO SHALL PASS - the niceness I mean!!
I have a fear of how to answer the question, why do you want to leave a steady, secure position in this economy? I want to answer him honestly, but it will sound bad.
I will keep reading over my cover letter to him which describes my relationship with my dog, he contacted me from that letter because it says who I am and how passionate I am about my canine friends.
Keep me in your thoughts,
hope4meandu

I felt so bad about being unable to finish my MUT of yesterday... then I came accross Catherine's post from yesterday... and my reply got me into thinking that I am actually in a better position that I was a couple months ago. I still go bad a lot of days, but overall I believe I am doing better and achieving more things that back then.
So thank you God as your present me with another day and for showing me I can still trust in myself and my ability to walk towards my own happiness. Thank you as well for my fellow PAs!
Now, go finish my task from yesterday!
thank you all from being here!
