What did you discover about yourself for the first time in the past week?

As for me, I'm too trusting, even foolishly so.

    Why are you too trusting?  What is there that keeps happening that you cannot control?  Why do you take that leap of faith and regret it?  

    Or are you just saying this because you feel someone let you down?   Does it really happen all the time?  If it does, you need to write it down and read it and write down every time it happens and soon you will have a reminder NOT TO DO THAT.

    In the past week I am reminded that if I think positively, I wind up with much better results than if I think the worst.  This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at November 1, 2017 11:42 PM MDT

      I noticed that "I've still got it".  Wink, wink.
