that's what I was thinking when I was with my first elderly
person...that it's important to have memeories,connections,associations
with the past... I guess you can go too far,of course... maybe it's
like anything,finding some kind of balance. having some roots,some
connectiobs and tradtions... and at the same time rebelling against it
all,trying to do things your own way,trying to get out of old habits
and patterns... I guess trying to find a balance between
newness,excitement,adventure,getting out of your comfort zone and the
familiar pleasures of safety and security and being in your comfort
zone is a good idea... that's always been paticularly challening for me
I think because my comfort zone has always been my own world... When
I'm in my own world I can pretend,I can have fantasies and day dreams
about doing exciting and adventurous and crazy things without actually
DOING those things... that's always been a big challenge for me,to go
from thinking,day dreaming,fantasizing etc.. to actually DOING...
