Owning your shit is an important part of processing. I think if one can be honest about one's own issues, it's easier to separate them from the problem at hand, and easier to see what needs to be solved. I too think those are great I statements.

Like with L last night telling me to put my shirt on, yes, frustrating, so I twittered it, but then we talked about it. Twitter is things I'm feeling at the moment....the blog is me thinking things through and posting. Last night, I broke down and cried in front of/with/about F on a street downtown. If I had twittered at that moment, it would have been about hating life and wanting stuff to just freeze. Then we talked. Today, I feel much better. Twitter is in the moment, the blog is more processing :) Randi – A lot depends on the moment.

I know you post early here, but on the twitter account it sounds like things aren't necessarily as great as they sound when you read the blog. I hope you're okay!

Things will go the way they go and even if it doesn't work out the way you want it to, well then at least you can take solace in knowing that while it was good, you truly enjoyed it for all it was worth. That's the goal - to just really live the good stuff.
