Filed under: gravity
Before I get too far with the whole “who’s in your gravitational pull?” thing, we need to establish one thing: all of us are in someone else’s gravity also. Maybe several people. Maybe you’re even sucked into a tractor beam of negative culture: greed, stupid sex (there is an alternative), laziness. I think most of our decisions are based on some influences we are NOT aware of. You may need to really ask yourself “who do I know or see in the media that is doing things the way I WISH I could?” Then, listen to them. You may not even know them but read their books, hear them on tv, read their stuff on the internest, etc. But they may be a friend or acquaintance. One thing you’ll read here a lot is to find someone who’s ahead of you and where you want to be and BUG THEM. Ask them questions. Send them emails. Ask if you can hang out and learn from them. Please, do this without stalking – hahaha. But seriously though…you don’t get any wisdom you don’t pursue. All of us need someone to learn from and someone to teach.

I strongly agree here. It’s extremely important to find someone that you can talk to, trust, and learn from. Most of the time, this is NOT our pears. I’ve been in the mist of this search myself. Finding an older woman I can be around to learn from to teach me how to be a better woman, possibly a wife in the near future, and learn more about motherhood.
Comment by Mallory Jen August 18, 2007 @ 5:21 pmThis is just something I’m starting to think about and realized that I really don’t know a lot about relationships in general; how I should treat my future husband… etc. So yeah, the search continues, but it is most definitely worth the quest.
